Paneer Kadai is a vibrant, semi‑dry North Indian curry where paneer pieces are cooked with onions, tomatoes, and bell peppers in a freshly pounded kadai masala made from roasted coriander seeds, dried red chilies, cumin, and other whole spices. The masala imparts a robust, slightly smoky flavor that makes the dish a favorite in restaurants and homestyle cooking alike. Finished with kasuri methi and fresh coriander, it offers a balanced heat and earthy aroma—perfect with naan, tandoori roti, laccha paratha, or jeera rice.
