Paneer is the staple protein for most vegetarians on the Keto diet. It’s also pretty easy to make at home if you don’t have access to it, in fact try my homemade paneer recipe. This recipe is pretty simple and will help you hit your fat macros and has almost no carbs per serving.
Designing an Indian Keto diet plan for vegans may be a little complicated, but some options are still open. Soy milk, almond milk, coconut milk, nuts (almonds, walnuts, peanuts), and seeds (such as flax seeds, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, and hemp seeds) are good options to include in your diet, other than vegetables.
Mix the ginger garlic paste, salt, chilli powder, tumeric, coriander & cumin powder and half the melted butter/ghee together. Fry the paneer for 1-2 minutes of each side till nice and golden brown. Garnish with fresh coriander and lemon and serve. Sahil is the master chef behind Headbanger's Kitchen.
And, the best part of paneer is that you can even tuck it raw. From palak paneer to butter paneer, to tawa paneer, to chilli paneer, and to shahi paneer, Indian vegetarian food is incomplete without paneer.
