A nutritious and flavorful vegetarian curry featuring fresh spinach (palak) cooked with soft cottage cheese cubes (paneer) in a rich, creamy gravy. Seasoned with garlic, ginger, and aromatic spices, this healthy dish is packed with iron and protein. Served with your choice of naan or basmati rice for a wholesome meal.
Palak Paneer is one of North India's most beloved vegetarian dishes, combining the nutritional powerhouse of fresh spinach with the creamy richness of paneer (Indian cottage cheese). At Tandoor N Flame, we prepare this dish using fresh, vibrant spinach that's blanched to preserve its beautiful green color and nutrients, then pureed into a smooth, velvety base.
Our paneer is made fresh daily, ensuring it's soft, creamy, and perfectly textured. The cubes are gently pan-fried to give them a golden exterior before being added to the spinach gravy. The curry is seasoned with a perfect blend of garlic, ginger, cumin, coriander, and garam masala, creating layers of flavor that complement the natural earthiness of the spinach. A touch of cream adds richness without overwhelming the dish's healthy character.
What makes our Palak Paneer special is the balance between health and flavor. This dish is packed with iron, protein, and vitamins, making it a nutritious choice that doesn't compromise on taste. The mild spice level makes it accessible to all palates, including children, while the rich, creamy texture and complex flavors satisfy even the most discerning vegetarian diners. Served with fluffy basmati rice or fresh naan, it's a complete, wholesome meal that's both satisfying and good for you.
