Palak Paneer: 8.5/10
Trader Joe’s has a great frozen Indian selection, so I had to give this next dish a try! Palak paneer has 2 main ingredients, spinach and paneer cheese. The combination of turmeric, tomato paste, and cream mixed with the spinach and cheese make this meal SO comforting and satisfying. For a frozen meal, this is a great, quick option that I will happily be buying again. I was worried the spinach would taste too soggy and wilted like cooked spinach sometimes does, but it was almost blended like a pesto making the texture way better than I was expecting. Even though this dish has chili in it, I’d say it’s more on the mild side. It’s $3.29 for the box. I’d love to hear how this compares to your favorite versions of this dish and if it is a good representation!
Have you tried this yet? What’s your favorite frozen #traderjoes Indian meal?
Delish! Perfect for busy week day lunches
This is amazing with some naan. The butter chicken is delicious too.
Their vegan tikka masala 😋
This one hurts my tum tum.
I’ve bought this for a few years and like it. It’s very rich though (read:fatty?) and adding rice and making one into 2 meals is a good idea 😉
Chicken tikka!!
The Fish Korma Curry! It has so much flavor.
The lamb vindaloo 🔥🔥
We love the butter chicken and fiery chicken with garlic Naan!
the paneer tikka masala is my fav 😍
Anyone know how it compares to the saffron road brand? 🤔
My fave!!
Agree. Their frozen Indian food is really good.
Their Lamb vindaloo is absolutely delish!!!!
This is my favorite! I like to eat it with their Jasmine rice 🍚
This is in my top 5 and I always recommend it to others. I also love the vanilla bean chantilly cream cake 🤤🤤🤤
Is it spicy???
I Loved TJ Penang Veggie Curry- But I Can’t Find It Anymore!!
I gotta try it. I used to work at an Indian restaurant so my standard for Palak Paneer is high
I’m Indian and I can vouch for the fact that most of Trader Joe’s Indian Frozen Dishes taste like homemade!
I’ve been buying this for YEARS, 10 at a time. Still delicious!
I love this! I was just very disappointed with how little paneer there was.
I pick up several of the Indian meals when I go. The Paneer Tikka Masala with the Paratha is so good.
Being an Indian who cooks this frequently, this is my must from TJ. It’s perfect. Their paneer is fresh and it tastes so good even on a toast.
