About Our Shahi Paneer

Shahi Paneer is a dish fit for royalty – and at Tandoori Tadka, we prepare it with that level of care. Our paneer is made fresh in-house, giving it that soft, creamy texture that store-bought paneer simply cannot match. The cubes are lightly sautéed to develop a golden exterior while keeping the inside pillowy soft.

The gravy is where the magic lies: a blend of tomatoes, onions, cashew paste, and cream is cooked down with whole spices, ginger, and garlic until it reaches a velvety consistency. The paneer is then gently folded in and finished with a touch of dried fenugreek and a swirl of cream. It's rich, aromatic, and deeply satisfying.

"I have eaten here several times. Amazing Bartha, had a paneer loved it! Plus the garlic naan bread is excellent! They are getting their liquor license in 2022. I had the tea it was great. Try this place you won't regret it."

"My daughter and I went to this restaurant this evening, for a first visit and it won't be our last. We love Indian food and try new places frequently. Tandoori Tadka was a great choice. The paneer dish was perfect with the large pieces of paneer and crisp peppers. We ordered geera rice and it was exceptional."
