Paneer Butter Masala in Alberta

Fresh cottage cheese in a rich, mildly sweet tomato-butter sauce — our most popular vegetarian dish.

Overview

Paneer butter masala is one of the most popular vegetarian dishes in Indian cooking, and it's a regular order at all three of our locations. Cubes of fresh, non-aged paneer simmer in a rich onion and tomato sauce, and it holds up just as well as our meat curries while staying fully vegetarian.

Flavor Profile and Ingredients

The paneer cooks in a creamy onion-based sauce with fenugreek leaves and green cardamom, finished with cream and butter for a smooth, mildly sweet flavor. It's rich, but the spice level stays gentle, so it works well for most guests.
