Ingredients

1 jar (170g) The Paste Co. Butter Chicken Paste
500g paneer, cut into large cubes
300ml double cream
1 tbsp butter or ghee
Fresh coriander, to garnish (optional)
Basmati rice or naan, to serve (optional)

Method

Cut the paneer into generous cubes.
Coat the paneer with around 1–2 tsp of Butter Chicken Paste, adding a little more if needed to evenly coat.
Heat the butter or ghee over a medium heat and cook the paneer until golden on all sides. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining Butter Chicken Paste and cook for 1 minute.
Pour in the 300ml double cream and stir until smooth. Simmer gently for 2–3 minutes.
Return the paneer to the pan and gently coat it in the sauce. Simmer for 1–2 minutes until heated through.
Garnish with fresh coriander and serve with basmati rice or naan if desired.
