Soft, creamy and delicious malai paneer curry recipe. Malai paneer is a paneer curry prepared in a milk cream gravy. Tomatoes and cashew nuts add to the tangy taste and creamy texture of the curry. Paneer is soft and home-made but you can use local cottage cheese varieties too.
Cashew nuts make the curry this and add to its creaminess. You can skip the cashew nuts in the gravy for a lighter version of the dish.
For a vegan preparation, you can substitute paneer or cottage cheese with plain tofu and milk cream with soy cream or ½ cup more cashew nuts. And don’t use butter, only oil.
