Dal Makhani

Dal Makhani is just one of many rich dishes that go perfectly with butter naan. It’s a combination of dried lentils and spices cooked in a creamy tomato sauce, then served over butter naan or with rice. The dish has its origins in the northern Indian city of Amritsar and is now popular throughout South Asia.

Butter Chicken

  • Butter chicken: You can make this dish coating pieces of chicken in a sauce made from tomatoes, Butter, and cream. It’s a popular dish in the UK and US, but it originates in India.
  • Chicken Tikka Masala: Chicken tikka masala is another Indian dish that uses chicken and tomato sauce as its base ingredients. It’s similar to butter chicken but has less cream than its counterpart—just enough to give it a creamy texture without overwhelming the other flavours in this rich meal.

Paneer Pasanda

Paneer Pasanda is a famous dish from the Punjab region of India. It is a rich and creamy dish made with paneer (cheese), cashews, and cream. It can be served with any bread or rice.

Paneer Pasanda is often served with Butter Naan because of its deliciousness and butteriness; it goes well with naan because it’s a rich, creamy dish that goes well with cheese and nuts—two things that naan has plenty of! You can serve this dish as an appetizer for dinner parties or just for yourself when you want something delicious but not too filling.

Pindi Chhole

Pindi Chhole is a delicious chickpea curry with spicy tomato gravy. It’s a popular dish in the northern Indian state of Punjab and is made using white chickpeas—smaller than their brown counterparts and also known as Kabuli chana or Bengal gram. When cooked, they take on more of an almond paste-like texture with a subtle crunchiness that makes them perfect for munching on while you’re waiting for your butter naan to arrive.

It’s no wonder why Pindi chole goes so well with butter naan: both dishes have similar ingredients but different flavours—one being sweet, one being sour. The heat from the mustard seeds adds depth to the flavour profiles while adding texture through its crunchy seeds. The consistency also works well because it lends itself well to dipping into various sauces (which can be found here).

Elaichi powder a pinch
Almonds (chopped) 1 tbsp
Cashew nuts (chopped) 1 tbsp

How to make Mango Phirni:
Wash the rice a couple of times. Soak the rice in water for 45 minutes, after soaking, drain the water and air dry the soaked rice.
Cut the mangoes and remove the flesh and transfer them to the grinding jar to make a puree.
Once the rice is completely dried, transfer to a mixer grinder and grind to a coarse texture, make sure not to grind too much. Further, soak the grounded rice in milk, take 200 ml milk from the 1 litre, and keep the remaining 800 ml milk for making the phirni.
Set a heavy bottom vessel on medium heat, add the remaining 800 ml of full-fat milk, stir and bring to a light simmer.
Once the milk is boiled, add the milk-soaked rice, make sure to stir while adding the rice, and cook for 10 minutes on medium flame while stirring in short intervals. Scrap off the sides while cooking. Make sure to stir continuously throughout the cooking process.
Once the phirni starts to thicken, lower the flame and stir continuously, cook until the rice grains are cooked.
Once the phirni is thickened, add the mango puree, and chopped nuts and stir well.
Taste for the sweetness and add the sugar accordingly, add a pinch of elaichi powder, stir and cook on medium-low flame while stirring for another 5-7 minutes. The consistency of the phirni should be thick.
Finish with a pinch of salt and stir well.
Transfer immediately in a sakora/kullhad to set, make sure the phirni is warm enough while setting in the sakora/kullhad.
Set in the fridge for a minimum of 3-4 hours or overnight. Once set, remove and serve chilled with some mango pieces as a garnish and a few fresh mint leaves.
