Paneer Butter masala is an all time favourite for most of us out there, isn’t it?
It was once a common food item in almost all wedding receptions!

250 grams paneer cut into pieces
2 onions chopped
3 tomatoes
1/2 tsp garam masala

2 tsp ginger garlic paste
1/4 cup butter
3 tsp water.
METHOD

Layer finely chopped onions, ginger garlic paste and tomatoes which are scooped out in the middle in the mentioned order. Add the marinated paneer . Cook on high for 3 whistles. Release pressure manually. Carefully remove paneer pieces and blend the remaining into a smooth paste . Then add the paneer back to the blended paste. Add chopped coriander leaves and serve this with naan or roti!

You can use a blender or mixie to blend it. If you want to use grated paneer, add the grated paneer in a cup and keep it above after you arrange all ingredients. After blending mix both.
