History of Chilli Paneer

Chilli Paneer is a part of Indo-Chinese cuisine, a fusion that emerged in India over a century ago.

Origins of Indo-Chinese Cuisine

The Indo-Chinese food culture began in Kolkata in the early 1900s when Chinese immigrants introduced their culinary traditions to India. Over time, Indian spices and cooking methods were blended with Chinese ingredients, leading to unique dishes.

The Birth of Chilli Paneer

Chilli Chicken was one of the earliest Indo-Chinese innovations. To cater to vegetarians, paneer was introduced as a substitute, giving rise to Chilli Paneer. This dish quickly became popular in Indian restaurants and street food stalls.

Modern Popularity

Today, Chilli Paneer is enjoyed in homes, restaurants, and street food joints across India and beyond. It has become a staple in Indo-Chinese cuisine, available in both dry and gravy versions.
