Restaurant style Khoya kaju recipe – Roasted cashews are simmered in very rich and creamy gravy.

This kaju curry might not suit to everyone’s taste buds. As this curry is totally different from the usual Punjabi gravies which are spicy and made with onion-tomato gravy

As name of the dish says, khoya or mawa is added to the gravy which makes it rich and heavy. Khoya is nothing but the milk solids.This gravy is very flavorful with slight sweet taste. It is very heavy and rich that I usually prefer to make it on special occasions or celebrations.

lastly, here i have added onion paste to it but you may totally skip it to make it no onion on garlic jain recipe.
