tawa paneer masala recipe with step by step photos – this delicious tawa paneer recipe is one of the easiest and quick paneer recipe you can prepare. a delicious semi dry curry which can be cooked in less than 30 minutes. so easy that you can make these when you have unexpected guests at home or you want to cook something easy for dinner after a day’s hard work.
the best part is you can easily serve the tawa paneer masala with a wheat bread or brown bread or pav. you don’t need to make chapatis or parathas. of course you can make chapati or parathas, if you have time and are not too tired.
few other quick and easy paneer recipes on the blog are:
the entire recipe is made on a tawa/tava – a concave shaped round pan (shown in the step by step pics below) used in indian homes for making various indian flat breads like rotis and parathas. even dosa and cheela (gram flour crepes) are made on the tawa. they are also used for shallow frying snacks like aloo tikki and for dry roasting spices, nuts and seeds. a few vegetarian recipes made on tawa are:
if you don’t have a tawa, then you can easily use a frying pan or a medium skillet. if using a tawa, then use a medium sized or a large tawa, so that the food does not spill from the sides while cooking.
to make this recipe, you will need paneer/cottage cheese, capsicum, onion, tomatoes and the regular indian spices-herbs. i have made a puree of the tomatoes. however, you can just finely chop them and add to the dish.
while serving paneer tawa masala, drizzle some lemon juice on top and garnish with coriander leaves. accompany with some side salad.

Hi i tried ur recipe it came out good but it had a little sour flavor. Can u suggest wht to do pls?
sourness could be due to tomatoes. you can add some cream or a little sugar to tone down the sourness.

pleased to know this thank you kahekashan 🙂 for the feedback.
How do paneer taste. . Kindly rply
paneer has a bland taste and it absorbs the flavors of the sauce or gravy that you make.
Hey Dassana.. Your recipes are just amazing.. Could you tell me if there is any substitute for carom seeds or could I skip them?
thanks bhavi. just skip them. an alternative but not a substitute, would be cumin seeds.
Amazing recipe
Thank amit ..u made me a good cook
welcome dhananjay. glad to know this.
Hello…. Can I make this recipe without capssium
capsicum gives a very good taste. without capsicum some flavor and taste will be lost. but you can still make.
Hi,
Wanted to try this recipe. But I need to make it for a quantity that has to be served to 20 ppl..so if I use 600g of paneer can u tell me how to alter the quantity of ingredients accordingly..
use 1 kg of paneer and increase the quantity of all ingredients 4 to 5 times proportionately except the spice powders. add the spice powders as per taste.
I love this blog..they have the best and most easy recipes..and most of all my husband has started loving my veg food..thank u soo much..keep bringing in excellent recipes!
glad your husband started liking veg food and thankyou for your kind words 🙂 also you are always welcome rasha.

thankyou so much adarsh glad you liked the tawa paneer masala 🙂
Thanks. I’ll try to do the recipe
welcome.
Very nice recipe thanks, quick tasty and the perfect quantity for 2 people. I served with onion lachcha and roti, perfect!
glad to know this and thankyou tom 🙂
Can I substitute tamarind powder for the mango powder, or should I special order the mango powder. I just came across your blog & see that you use this ingredient quite often in your recipes. Can’t wait to try it!
tamarind gives a different kind of sourness than dry mango powder. skip the dry mango powder and add few drops of lemon or lime juice towards the end.
Dear Dassana Amit….been wanting to write to you since a while. I have tried most of your paneer recipes with great success! Your site is so inviting for any vegetarian cook….and God sent for an amateur like me. Thank you once again.

I have sticked to your site since I moved to Malaysia, as there are less options for vegetables here. But , aftr visiting your site , I don’t have to think about dishes to cook. I’m always ready with some or other dish. Love your work.
Thanks again.
Deepika.
welcome deepika. glad to know that you like the recipes.
Hi,
I would like to try this recipe sooner. I have two doubts although:
1. Can I use non stick flat pan instead of tawa?
2. Whenever I use tomato puree, I don’t know why but my dish on tasting seems uncooked, slightly sweet in taste. No matter how long I cook, I never saw gravy releasing oil/butter. This happen only with tomato puree based dish. Please suggest what should I do?
you can use a non stick tawa. you have to cook the puree for some more minutes. oil specks should be seen floating on top or at the sides. add a pinch of salt for the tomato puree to cook faster.
I tried pander butter masala. It is an excellent recepi. Thanks!
thanks sintu for the positive review on paneer butter masala.
thanks a lot .hope to be nice as it looks
welcome aparna
Turned out delicious!
thanks jayshree

Its really tasty and yummy , hot and spicy. I liked it very much.
thanks ananya for sharing positive feedback.
I cant wait to try this recipe. Everything else i’ve tried from your website is absolutely fabulous. You are very talented.
I had one question. I would prefer to use double cream in this dish rather than sugar. How much would i need to pour? Half or quarter cup?
jashen, i have not added sugar in this recipe.
Hi Dassana,

Hey your steps are so easy to follow..and your recepies are fabulous .one question
Why haven’t you added jeera or cumin seeds and chose ajwain seeds instead ?
And how do you chop everything so finely .do you use a special tool. If so please share the same as chopping is very time taking .thanks 🙂
thanks. i added ajwain as it would give a good aroma to the curry. you can also add jeera instead of ajwain. i chop with a knife. i have been trained to chop finely with a knife. though i don’t chop that finely the way i used to do before.
I will try your method to cook. And then only share my experience.
Thank you.
sure 🙂
thank u

welcome sakshi. thanks for this sweet feedback. glad to know that you are liking the recipes. wishing you all the best in cooking.
My feedback for this dish is long pending.. I should have done it earlier…
This is one of the easiest paneer sabji ever! I have made this dish 5-6 times for rotis and its such a foolproof recipe. It doesn’t go wrong and tastes the same everytime… (usually that doesn’t happen with me for other dishes!) Especially when you are hard pressed for time.. this recipe takes just 30-40 mins in all! It goes so well with rotis and the flavour of pav bhaji masala is what makes this dish so good!
thanks nivedita for sharing this positive feedback. i am sure it will inspire other readers to try this recipe. happy cooking.
Excellent recipe. Thanx a lot .
welcome deepika
Excellent recipe. Everyone liked it.

This one was a winner too Dassana. I’m really amazed at the ease that you have explained it with and how even beginners can come up with the right taste to make it look it was made by a seasoned cook. Needless to say, brilliant work done by you as always. I think I spend most times running through your blog than anything else, I always thought I can never cook but now, I’m a believer. All thanks to you ! ! !

Hello..i have tired your tawa paneer today itself..and my in laws nd husband liked it a lot..thanks a lot. Please keep sharing your awesome recipes. I am very thankful to u. I m belongs from marwari family can u please suggested some tradinational recipe for me..
thanks a lot payel. there are many traditional recipes on the blog. you can use the google search button and type the name of the recipe. then hit enter and you will get the recipe if posted.
Since the capsicum is added in between, what if it is overcooked because it is a very dominating one………..But i didn’t make a try yet…….
the capsicum can be half cooked or three fourth cooked. its the capsicum that bring in flavor in this dish. if you feel its too much, then you can add a small capsicum instead of a medium sized one.
I Love your blog and follow it on regular basis. I have a quick question on your tawa paneer recipe. Instead of butter can I use oil. I am lactose intolerant, so can’t eat dairy products.
thanks sonu for the positive feedback. butter gives a nice taste but you can also use oil instead of butter.
Tawa paneer masala was fantastic. It is easy and explained very well. My children liked it very much. Yes I would like to try other receipes also.

Thanks Dassana. I followed your recipe and it turned out very well. Here’s what I achieved in first attempt. I used non-stick tawa to cook this.

dear,
today i tried tawa paneer. it came very well and the taste is very nice. My daughters loved this recipe with roti.
welcome gomathi. glad to know that you all liked the tawa paneer recipe.
This was an amazing recipe – everyone at home loved it. I usually only use capsicum and paneer together in kadhai paneer so this was a welcome change using the same basic ingredients. Thank you!
welcome saloni. glad to know that you tried something new and it came out well for you.

Hi Dassana,
It was so much fun cooking on a tawa..my first time with this style of cooking..:-)Also the dish tasted very good…thank you:-)
welcome ashwini. tawa cooking is a lot different than cooking in kadai or a pan.
Cool recipe, I liked it becoz all the ingredients r readily available in the kitchen and the final dish is very yummy.Thanks
welcome navin.
I made this for dinner yesterday and since I am a vegan I used coconut oil instead of butter and firm organic tofu for paneer , it was delicious. my family raved about it.
Thanks so much!
welcome carmen and big thanks for sharing your feedback and variation. coconut oil or even any other oil can be used instead of butter. tofu is a nice vegan substitute for paneer.
This looks great Dassana!! i am going to try this tomorrow as my cook will be on a leave…All your recipes are so good for health Dassana. You are doing a noble deed by teaching people to to cook healthy yet maintain the great taste 🙂 Restaurants make us sick and are heavy on pockets.
welcome tanvi and big thanks for your kind words. i agree home cooked food is better than restaurants food. more healthy, hygienic and suit the pockets.

I needed a small advice , how do i keep my rotis soft for a long time ?
thanks smitha. knead the atta with hot water. this way the rotis become soft and even stay soft for a long period of time.
Thank you for greate receipe,its wonderful,
lookslike mouth watering.
welcome aman.
Made it today for dinner. Yummy.
thanks pragya for the feedback
Dassana, when I make tawa paneer, I just crumble the paneer before adding…..as this can be done quickly….and always my last resort for a quick curry…..next time I make, I will try with pav bhaji masala and cube the paneer as this looks more yum…yummy clicks as always!
i don’t crumble the paneer, as it looks to me more like paneer bhurji 🙂 do try with the paneer cubes. pav bhaji masala gives a nice taste and flavor to the entire dish.
I cubed the paneer and added this time and you are so right….they looked yummy!!
so you tried nisa. they looked yummy…. but did they taste yummy?
Can we make this in Kadhai too? Will that taste same?
you can make in the kadhai. the taste will be a bit different though.
simple and tasty paneer recipe
thanks veena
Done let it me try this for today’s lunch 🙂 Thanks for sharing this quick recipe.
welcome prasant
this reminds me a lot of my hyd days. a restaurant there made a killer version of tawa paneer and i used to go there so often. hope you have been good 🙂
yes nags, i am fine.
loved the idea of making it on the tawa. being a paneer lover, i should try this soon . though i have tried some thing similar in the kadai ! loved the click .. so as recipe too
thanks aparna.
