Achari Paneer is a vibrant North Indian dish where soft paneer (Indian cottage cheese) is simmered in a tangy, spicy and creamy gravy inspired by traditional Indian pickles (achar).
It features a distinct homemade or store-bought "achari masala" made with robust pickling spices like mustard, fennel, cumin, fenugreek and nigella seeds.
Serve with:
● Basmati rice
● Jeera (cumin) rice - normal boiled basmati rice Simmered with a Saute of Jeera cooked in Oil or Butter
● Naan
● Cucumber raita
💡 Nitu’s Top Tip: "I highly advise making this dish on a Tuesday, Thursday, or Friday!"
For a workplace buffet You can make it slightly saucier by adding 100–150ml water after the yoghurt. This helps it stay moist if it's sitting out for a while.
