Paneer Pakora in Winnipeg

5-star guest reviews on TripAdvisor & Yelp

Paneer pakora is the appetizer that disappears first. Thick cubes of fresh paneer go into a seasoned chickpea-flour batter and straight into hot oil, so the outside shatters and the middle stays soft and milky. Served with mint chutney, sliced onion and lime — the ideal way to open a meal in Winnipeg.

About Our Paneer Pakora

Pakoras are Indian rainy-day food, and paneer pakora is the richest of the family. Because paneer holds its shape when it is fried, each piece keeps a distinct contrast: crisp, spiced crust outside and soft cheese inside.

Our batter is chickpea flour (besan) seasoned with ajwain, turmeric, chilli and salt, loosened just enough to cling to the paneer without turning heavy. Everything is fried to order so it reaches your table hot. If you are ordering for a group, pair it with our vegetable pakora and samosas — that trio is the backbone of most of our party platters and office lunch trays in Winnipeg.
