Tamatar wala paneer is a spicy very simple easy to make paneer recipe to serve as side dish. It is a super quick Indian cottage cheese recipe which you can bring on the table in under 20 Minutes. And, also doubles up as a sandwich filling.
If you are looking for traditional tomato paneer gravy recipe or cheese tomato recipe, this recipe is not for that. Tamatar wala paneer is a recipe which my Mom makes and we all love to eat. Scooping the tangy and spicy tomato paneer with crispy paratha for the breakfast or as a sandwich filling in a buttery white toast.
This is one of my very favorite food memory from the childhood, and till date, I love this most basic but super tasty paneer dish. You can serve it with chapati, paratha or any type of bread as a sandwich filling.
Tomato paneer makes a perfect side for any North Indian meal. One of my favorite combination for late Sunday brunch is Masala til Aloo and tamatar wala paneer with paratha. I often pair it with curries and dal for an elaborate meal. Below are few combinations which I managed to click.
