Paneer features in many recipes in North Indian cuisine, but few bring in the veggies and masala mix like kadai paneer. Cottage cheese is roasted and simmered in a spicy mix of vegetables. Butternut squash is not a common addition, but in this recipe, it adds a nutty taste and pulpy texture to the dish, making the curry creamier and richer in flavour.
