About Kadai Paneer
Royal Kitchen’s printed vegetarian menu lists Kadai Paneer as item 148 at ฿280, matching the product price when this page was updated. The original dish photograph shows paneer cubes, green bell pepper pieces and onion petals in a red-orange masala, with fine ginger strips across the top. It is a useful choice when you want cheese and vegetables together rather than a smooth sauce alone.
The paneer gives each mouthful substance, while the pieces of pepper and onion offer a different texture. A spoonful can include a little of each, or you can scoop up the masala with bread between bites. The photographs are redesigned from the restaurant’s original image; presentation and garnish may vary when served.
In Indian cooking, kadai refers to a deep, wok-like pan. Published recipes differ in how much sauce they use and which spices they include. The name is not a complete ingredient list, nor a promise of a particular cooking technique in every kitchen. Please ask our team if you need the current preparation checked.

Kadai Paneer or another paneer dish?
Start with the kind of meal you want. Kadai Paneer is the curry direction, with paneer and visible vegetables together in masala. Paneer Tikka is the grilled-starter choice. They are different preparations, not interchangeable names for the same plate.
If you are comparing it with Paneer Butter Masala, ask the team which sauce profile suits your taste. A dish name or photograph cannot tell you exactly how hot the current preparation will be. Explain whether you prefer gentle warmth or more chilli and check what adjustments are possible before ordering.
For a group, decide whether paneer is your main focus or one dish among several. Bread is convenient for sharing spoonfuls of the masala, while rice offers another way to build each bite. Accompaniments are separate selections unless the menu explicitly says otherwise; staff can help with quantities once they know what else you are ordering.
Dietary requests before you order
Paneer is a dairy cheese, so Kadai Paneer is not vegan and is not suitable for a milk allergy. Other sauce ingredients and cooking fats should also be checked if you have dietary restrictions. Vegetarian does not automatically mean nut-free, gluten-free or suitable for a Jain diet.
Tell the team about allergies separately from spice preferences, and ask about preparation and possible cross-contact. Do not rely on an outside recipe to decide whether the restaurant’s dish is suitable for you.
