I have already posted a version of Paneer Butter Masala but this is a richer version. This contains fried onion paste which gives it the lovely sweet flavour. I usually don't add sugar to my gravies. But when we usually taste restaurant gravies there is a slight sweetness in them which actually enhances the taste. So I tried adding sugar in this gravy and out come was very delicious. This was prepared long time back. I served it with palak roti. The best combination would be Naan or Kulcha.
