Appam with paneer butter masala is a fusion dish that combines the South Indian appam with the rich and creamy North Indian paneer butter masala. The appam is made using fermented rice batter, resulting in a soft and fluffy pancake-like dish. The paneer butter masala is a popular vegetarian dish made with paneer (Indian cottage cheese) cooked in a rich and flavorful tomato-based gravy. The combination of the mild and slightly sweet appam with the creamy and spicy paneer butter masala creates a delicious and satisfying meal.
