MDH Karahi Paneer Masala 100g
Description
Aroma: Peppery, Bold & Fragrant
Flavour: Sharp, Savoury & Medium-Hot
MDH Karahi Paneer Masala is a robust blend specifically crafted for the "Kadai" style of cooking named after the heavy, wok-like cast iron pot used in Indian kitchens. Unlike the mild or sweet Paneer Butter Masala, this blend is designed for a rustic, semi-dry curry that features chunky bell peppers and onions. It has a coarser, more "crushed" spice profile that provides a signature bite.
-
The Secret Pinch: The hallmark of a great Karahi Paneer is the texture. Sauté your cubed paneer, onions, and capsicum on high heat first, then add the masala towards the middle of the cooking process. Adding a tablespoon of crushed dried fenugreek leaves (Kasuri Methi) alongside this masala will give you that exact restaurant-style fragrance.
-
Culinary Versatility: While it’s the "hero" for Paneer, this masala is incredible for Karahi Mushroom, Baby Corn Masala, or even a Veg Jhalfrezi. Its peppery undertones also make it a surprising but delicious seasoning for stir-fried potatoes (Aloo Tuk).
-
Premium Ingredients: A high-impact mix of Coriander seeds, Red Chillies, Turmeric, Cumin, and Black Pepper. The slightly higher ratio of Coriander and Black Pepper is what distinguishes this from other paneer masalas, giving it that characteristic "Kadai" zing.
-
Indian Heritage: Karahi cooking is synonymous with North Indian "Dhaba's (roadside eateries). MDH has balanced this blend to replicate that smoky, high-heat flavour profile, ensuring the paneer remains the star while the spices provide a gritty, flavourful coating.
-
Storage & Care: Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. To keep the spices from losing their "punch," ensure the container is opaque, as light can dull the vibrant red and yellow hues of the chilli and turmeric.
