    About Paneer Hara Pyaz

    Paneer Hara Pyaz (Paneer Green Onion Curry) is a delicious Indian curry where paneer cubes along with green onions are cooked in a spicy onion-tomato masala.

    Make it for everyday meals or festivals and special occasions.

    This recipe can be easily doubled or tripled.

    Ingredients

    Paneer – Use fresh soft paneer for the best result.

    Green Onions – This recipe uses both white and green part of green onions

    Oil – Use any vegetable oil. Replace oil with ghee or butter for a richer curry.

    Spice Powders – To enhance the flavors, add some spice powders such as coriander powder, Kashmiri red chili powder, turmeric powder, and garam masala powder.

    Milk & Cream – These two ingredients form the creamy base of Paneer Green Onion Curry. You can skip adding cooking cream if you are making it for your everyday meals.

    The cream can be replaced with malai.

    Tomato – To add that much-needed tartness and color, you will need both canned tomato puree and fresh tomatoes.

    Ketchup – Tomato Ketchup add a sweet tangy taste to the curry.

    Others – Apart from the above-mentioned ingredients, you will need cumin seeds, garlic, and green chillies. Adjust the green chilies as per your taste.

    Serving Suggestions

    Paneer Aur Hara Pyaz will taste great with Indian Bread such as Phulka, Tawa Paratha, Laccha Paratha, Naan, Garlic Naan, Tandoori Roti, Khamiri Roti, or any other bread that you prefer to make at home.

    It also tastes great with Steamed Rice, Jeera Rice, Matar Pulao, Bagara Rice, or any other lightly spiced Pulao. Serve some sliced onions and roasted or fried papad on the side too.

    Storage Suggestions

    This curry can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for a day or two. Reheat it in a pan or microwave until nice and warm.

    It tends to become a little thick after refrigerating, so you can either add milk or water and adjust the consistency of the gravy before reheating.

    I do not recommend freezing the curry due to added milk and cream. It might curdle while reheating.
