Paneer Tikka Masala

Paneer Tikka Masala

Everyday

Paneer Tikka Masala is a classic North Indian dish featuring cubes of paneer (fresh cheese) marinated in spices, grilled, and simmered in a creamy tomato-based sauce. The dish derives its rich flavor from a blend of aromatic spices like garam masala, turmeric, and cumin, while the paneer provides a substantial source of vegetarian protein and calcium. Though often high in fat due to cream or yogurt in the sauce, it remains naturally gluten-free and offers a charred, smoky contrast to milder cheese-based curries.
