Paneer Kadhai

What is it?

Paneer cheese pieces sit in a spiced kadhai sauce with peppers, built as a frozen meal for the microwave or oven. Kadhai sauce usually leans on onions, tomatoes, garlic and warming spices, so the flavour here comes from that familiar North Indian base rather than a creamy curry. Sainsbury's also sells a range of frozen ready meals, and this one sits on the vegetarian side of it, with paneer doing the job that meat often would. Expect soft cheese cubes, pepper strips and a saucy finish that thaws down from frozen into a single-dish dinner.
