About Our Shahi Paneer

Shahi Paneer (meaning ‘Royal Paneer’) traces its origins to the royal kitchens of Mughal India, where rich, cream-based curries were prepared for emperors and nobility. At Taste of Hakka & Thakali Kitchen & Bar, we honour this regal heritage with a base of cashew paste, onion, tomato, and cream, spiced with cardamom, cloves, and saffron-tinged masalas that give the dish its distinctive golden hue and luxurious texture.

Fresh paneer cubes are gently simmered in this sauce until they absorb the aromatic flavours while retaining their soft, pillowy texture. The result is a curry that is indulgently rich, mildly sweet, and deeply satisfying — the ideal comfort food for vegetarians and paneer lovers alike. Served with fragrant basmati rice or freshly baked naan. Order online or visit us on 118 Ave NW.

What Customers Say About Our Shahi Paneer

“I like vegetarian dishes like momos, noodles, and shahi paneer — much better than any Indian restaurant around. Best among all Indian restaurants in Edmonton. Tandoori momo is my favourite, including paneer tikka.”

“Dropped in for lunch and was met with a pleasant server. The Paneer Pakoras were among the best I’ve tasted. Our Lamb Rogan Josh curry was excellent with fall-away tender lamb in an intricate gravy. Good food portions. Excellent prices in the $12 to $14 range.”
