How to make Kadai Paneer Gravy restaurant style with step by step photo and video recipe.

This Punjabi dish is full of creamy and rich gravy based curries, which are mainly served for lunch and dinner.

In particular, vegetarians tend to pay a lot of attention to most paneer dishes.

One such unique spicy recipe full of spices is Kadai Paneer Recipe or Karahi Paneer.    

 

i often get this question that what is the difference between kadai paneer vs paneer butter masala vs shahi paneer recipe. 

I think this time I have got an opportunity to clear your doubts. 

Basically the texture and probably the color of all these paneer recipes are very similar but completely different in terms of taste and the way it is prepared. 

Karahi paneer is more spicy than the other 2 dishes in which freshly prepared kadai masala is added. 

Whereas butter masala and shahi dishes are more creamy and rich. 

The Kadai Paneer recipe has moderate complexity in comparison, so I would like to make some suggestions and changes to make it easier. 

firstly, i always prepare kadai masala well in advance and store it in a well airtight container. 

Apart from this, this spice mixture can also be used for other paneer curries or gravies. 

And one more thing, for better results use soft and tender homemade paneer cubes. 

Alternatively you can also use store bought paneer, but soak it in hot water for 5-10 minutes to make it tender. 

finally, kadai paneer dry recipe is a popular variation of this recipe. 

You can prepare it without adding water and keeping it dry.
