When we were kids, whenever my parents went out to an adults only party, my mother used to ask us what we wanted for dinner at home. 99% of the time, our choice was pooris and shahi paneer. My mother was always nice enough to oblige. Here is the recipe. It is quite rich and hence a nice treat.

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons cooking oil
1 large onion, thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
½ teaspoon Kashmiri red chili powder
4 tomatoes, pureed
½ pound paneer, cubed
¼ cup water
1 teaspoon white sugar
salt to taste
¼ cup cream
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the onion and garlic in the hot oil until the onions are soft and golden brown, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the cumin, coriander, turmeric, and chili powder over the onion and garlic; continue cooking until the seasonings are fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Pour the pureed tomatoes into the skillet; cook until the excess liquid evaporates and the oil separates, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the paneer, water, sugar, and salt to the mixture; stir gently so the paneer does not break apart. Cook until the paneer begins to absorb some of the liquid, about 10 minutes. Stir the cream into the mixture and simmer another 5 minutes. Garnish with cilantro to serve.

This Shahi Paneer recipe is a waste of time. The instructions are unclear and the dish turned out inedible. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I followed the recipe exactly and my Shahi Paneer turned out terrible. The sauce was too watery and the paneer was tough. I will not be making this recipe again.

This is the worst Shahi Paneer recipe I've tried. The sauce was bland and the paneer was overcooked. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.
