Shahi Paneer

Royal cottage cheese in Mughal-style gravy — paneer cubes simmered in a rich, pale-golden gravy of onion paste, yogurt, cashew-almond paste, whole spices, saffron, and cream. No tomato, no red chilli — the shahi (royal) preparation is mildly spiced and creamy, inspired by the Mughal court's style of cooking meats in nut-enriched yogurt gravies. Eaten at celebrations with naan or rice.
