Creating Paneer Butter Masala is straightforward if you follow these steps:

1. Heat the Butter and Oil: In a pan, add butter and oil over medium heat. This combination prevents the butter from burning.
2. Sauté Onions: Add finely chopped onions to the pan and sauté until they turn golden brown.
3. Add Ginger-Garlic Paste: Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and cook for 1-2 minutes until the raw smell disappears.
4. Incorporate Tomato Puree: Pour in the tomato puree and cook until the mixture thickens and the oil starts to separate from it.
5. Spice It Up: Add red chili powder, turmeric powder, cumin powder, and salt. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
6. Add Paneer: Gently fold in the paneer cubes, ensuring they are well coated with the gravy.
7. Pour in Cream: Slowly add the heavy cream and stir to combine. Let it simmer for another 5-7 minutes on low heat.
8. Finish with Garam Masala: Sprinkle garam masala over the top and mix well to incorporate the flavors.
9. Garnish: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh coriander leaves for an extra touch of flavor and color.
