Kadai paneer calories and macros

One katori of kadai paneer (150 g) has roughly 240 calories, with about 13 g protein, 12 g carbohydrate, and 16 g fat. Kadai paneer is the semi-dry, pepper-forward member of the family: paneer cooked with capsicum, onion, tomato, and a freshly ground kadai masala, usually with less cream than shahi or butter masala. That lighter gravy is why it lands lower on calories than the cream-heavy paneers while keeping a good protein figure from the paneer and the bell peppers adding fibre and volume for very little cost. A home version with minimal oil is near 200, while a restaurant kadai finished with butter and a splash of cream crosses 280. Because it is spicier and drier, it is a good middle option: richer than paneer tikka but lighter than shahi paneer. For tracking, kadai paneer is one of the more reasonable paneer gravies, the peppers do real work without adding calories.
