Keto Shahi Paneer is a popular dish of Mughlai cuisine and has a very unique flavor in it. This is an aromatic main dish recipe, which is prepared using paneer, fresh cream, yogurt, milk, and a paste made of almonds, cashews, and onions. The very reason why the word ‘Shahi’ is added to the name of this recipe is that this recipe has a rich gravy made of nuts and onions, as Mughals used to love any dish made in such a gravy.
Keto Shahi Paneer is cooked using a fair amount of spices, which helps in making this dish mouth-watering grace. You can easily find paneer in your nearby market; however, nothing can beat the fresh paneer made at home.
