About Shahi paneer

Shahi Paneer is a popular dish from Indian cuisine, renowned for its rich and creamy texture. It features paneer, a fresh cheese, cooked in a velvety tomato-based gravy infused with aromatic spices like cardamom, cinnamon, and cloves. The dish often includes cream, cashews, or almonds, which give it a decadent flavor and luxurious consistency. Originating from Mughlai cooking traditions, Shahi Paneer translates to "Royal Paneer," reflecting its indulgent nature. While the paneer provides a good source of protein and calcium, the heavy use of cream and nuts makes it high in fat and calories. This dish pairs well with naan or rice, making it a comforting and hearty meal. For a healthier version, lighter substitutes like yogurt for cream can be used, enhancing its nutritional profile without sacrificing the richness. Shahi Paneer remains a favorite for celebrations and special occasions due to its luxurious taste.
