Tawa Paneer Masala Recipe | How to make Tawa Paneer Masala


Just like the Bhaji is done for Pav Bhaji, same way Paneer is also cooked to make Tawa Paneer Masala.  Tawa Paneer Masala can provide a variety from the other popular paneer dishes like Palak Paneer and Paneer Makhani.

Pav Bhaji masala is a main ingredient for Tawa Paneer Masala. (Check how to make Pav Bhaji Masala). I have used ready made malai paneer to make tawa paneer masala. We can use home made paneer as well for this recipe.

Tawa Paneer masala is a quick to prepare dish. If you have frozen paneer, keep it in warm water for 10 minutes. Cut the cubes of it and then it is ready to go in tawa paneer masala. Here is the complete recipe for preparing Tawa Paneer Masala.

Happy Cooking !!!

  • How to make Tawa Paneer Masala

    Chop the onion thin. Cut the cubes of washed tomato and make a fine puree of it in blender.

    Heat oil in a pan. Throw cumin seeds in it. Allow cumin seeds to crackle. Once cumin seeds are done, add chopped onion. Fry onion till they become translucent.



    Now add ginger paste and garlic paste in it. Add dry spices like turmeric powder, coriander powder and red chili powder. Fry the mix till the raw smell of ginger paste and garlic paste is gone and spices are cooked well.


    Now add tomato puree in it. Mix well. Cook it on low flames till the oil starts separating from the tomato masala . hen tomato in masala is cooked completely, add pav bhaji masala. If pav bhaji masala is not available, we can mix garam masala in mango powder and can use it. Pav Bhaji Masala is made with the roasted whole spices and mango powder.

    Once the masala is cooked completely, add paneer cubes. I grated 3 cubes of paneer just to add a rich texture to the masala. Mix well and cook on low flames for another 2 minutes.

    Tawa Paneer Masala is ready. Serve it hot with chapati / paratha or Pav.
