Kadhai Paneer is one of India's most popular vegetarian dishes and a signature
specialty at Cilantro Kittchen & Bar. Our authentic recipe begins with fresh, homemade
paneer (cottage cheese) cubes that are lightly fried to give them a golden exterior
while keeping the inside soft and creamy. The paneer is then combined with colorful
bell peppers and onions, all cooked in a traditional kadhai (wok) to impart that
distinctive smoky flavor.
What makes our Kadhai Paneer special is the perfect balance of flavors – spicy without
being overwhelming, fresh vegetables adding crunch and color, and that distinctive
kadhai cooking method that gives the dish its authentic taste. The gravy is made with
tomatoes, ginger-garlic paste, and a special kadhai masala blend that includes whole
spices. We serve our Kadhai Paneer with your choice of basmati rice or freshly baked
naan bread, making it the perfect spicy vegetarian comfort food for any occasion.
