Veg Makhani recipe, Veg Makhanwala

Veg makhani | veg makhanwala, no onion no garlic version with step by step pictures, a rich creamy gravy, pairs well with roti, rice. Makhani gravy is a popular Indian gravy. I have tasted Veg makhani in restaurants, recently attempted Paneer makhani gravy and shared the recipe too. This post also uses the same base for makhani gravy, a no onion no garlic version, to suit this navaratri season. The gravy turned out so rich and yummy and the flavour of the simple spices complimented the Veg makhani. No fancy ingredients needed, just make the Veg makhanwala with the ingredients easily available at home and enjoy this finger licking gravy. I have posted No onion garlic version of Paneer butter masala recipe few years back.
