Nope, there is a vegetarian variant on Murgh Makhani that substitutes
paneer for the chicken. I have had it several times while in Mumbai
recently, and here on the left coast.

So, the suggestions to use Murgh Makhani as a base are correct. BTW,
the gravy recipe should have, in addition to tomatoes, butter and cream
in it. If not, it is a 'lo-calorie' adaptation.
