Broccoli Paneer

By OcadoLifePublished on 20 June 2025Author of 15 Minute Indian, Anjula Devi is on a mission to speed up Indian cooking, using clever shortcuts and flavours from around the world. In her super-quick Broccoli Paneer, the chef teams the mild cheese (a favourite in Indian dishes) with a melting pot of other handy ingredients, including lemon-infused oil, chilli-spiked harissa and a kimchi hot honey – “It has a little kick and is fantastic drizzled on paneer or halloumi.” This recipe was first listed in OcadoLife as gluten free and can be easily adapted to be gluten free.
