Paneer butter masala is a popular Indian gravy dish, made from simmering cottage cheese in a rich, onion-tomato gravy. As the name suggests, butter (and even cream) are the underrated stars of the dish, lending the gravy its trademark creamy texture. But, with this low-oil paneer butter masala recipe, cashews do the heavy lifting, replacing cream and calories.
