Directions

  1. Step 1: Preparing the Marination
  2. The secret to the deliciousness of Paneer Tikka Masala lies in its marination. To prepare the marination, you will mix yogurt, red chili powder, garam masala, ginger-garlic paste, and lemon juice. Coat the paneer cubes and vegetables in this marination and let them sit for a while to absorb the flavors.
  3. Step 2: Grilling the Paneer and Vegetables
  4. After marination, grill the paneer and vegetables until they are lightly charred. This process imparts a smoky flavor to the dish, elevating its taste.
  5. Step 3: Preparing the Rich Tomato-Based Gravy
  6. The tomato-based gravy is the heart of Paneer Tikka Masala. It's prepared by sautéing onions and tomatoes until they are soft and pulpy. Then, blend them to form a smooth paste. Add cream and butter to make the gravy rich and creamy.
  7. Step 4: Combining the Grilled Paneer and the Tomato Gravy
  8. In the final step, combine the grilled paneer and vegetables with the tomato gravy. Let them simmer together, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully. This results in a mouthwatering dish that's a treat for your taste buds.
  9. Step 5: The Perfect Blend of Spices
  10. Paneer Tikka Masala is known for its perfect blend of spices, creating a harmonious symphony of flavors. Garam masala, red chili powder, and ginger-garlic paste add depth and warmth to the dish, making it an absolute delight for spice lovers.
