Paneer butter masala or cheese and butter masala is the perfect option for vegetarians or people looking to reduce the amount of meat in their diet.

Health Benefits
Many people may be skeptical of the health benefits to be found in paneer; after all, we’re often told to limit the amount of cheese we eat. But paneer does have some pretty strong health attributes. Its calcium content helps to build strong bones and teeth. It is an amazing source of conjugated linoleic acid which is a fatty acid responsible for weight loss. This compound strengthens and intensifies the fat burning processes in the body.
