Served with nutty brown rice and quinoa, lots of fresh lime juice and chopped fresh coriander, our 20-minute paneer and sweet potato curry is a great mid-week vegetarian recipe. Paneer is a fresh, mild and dense cheese that doesn’t melt, so it’s a great thing to pair with the bold flavours in this dish. It is a popular ingredient across India and much of Southern Asia, and provides bulk and protein to veggie curries like this one.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.
