Originating from India's Moghul cuisine, shahi paneer is a cheese curry that is prepared with paneer cheese, onions, almond paste, and a rich, spicy tomato-cream sauce. The dish is typically accompanied by Indian breads such as naan, roti, or puri.
Often referred to as the Royal paneer, traditionally, it is prepared during special occasions and festivities as a vegetarian main course. Rich, hearty, and nutritious, shahi paneer is commonly garnished with coriander leaves.
