Paneer Butter Masala is a popular North Indian vegetarian curry. It features tender cubes of paneer (Indian cottage cheese) simmered in a rich, creamy, and mildly spiced tomato-based gravy. The gravy gets its characteristic richness and flavor from generous amounts of butter and often cashews or cream, giving it a smooth and velvety texture. It's typically slightly sweet and tangy, balancing the flavors of tomatoes and spices
