This vegetarian curry uses chunks of creamy paneer in a fragrant butter-style curry sauce. It’s mild enough for the whole family to enjoy, but you can spice up this paneer curry with the addition of some fresh chillies if you like it hotter.

For this paneer curry I’ve gone down a similar route to my butter chicken as my family LOVE the taste of a butter masala sauce and it compliments the paneer so well!
📋 Ingredients
For the spices in this paneer masala I’m using:
- Medium heat curry powder
- Paprika
- Cinnamon
- Garam Masala
- Cardamom
Because we’re not vegetarian I do use chicken stock here but you can replace it with vegetable stock for a full vegetarian version of the is Paneer Curry!

- Blend the onion, garlic and ginger together.
- Sauté the onion mixture in butter and oil for 5-6 minutes.
- Add the spices and cook for a couple of minutes until they release their fragrance.
- Add the rest of the sauce (masala) ingredients and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Remove the cardamom and stir through the cream.
- Carefully add the cubes of paneer and cook, stirring gently, for 3 minutes, then serve!
👩🍳PRO TIP I like to sew cardamom pods together with a piece of natural cotton. This makes it much easier to find them and easily fish them out later.
If you wanted to spice this dish up then you could add a a red chilli in with the onions and garlic or half a teaspoon of kashmiri chilli powder when the other spices get added in.
🍽️ What to serve it with
