<p>Paneer&mdash;the star of Indian weddings. At big Delhi parties or small Gurgaon get-togethers, you&#39;ll see this adaptable cheese block on every wedding menu. Guests love it, vegetarians rely on it, and chefs use it to show off their skills. But let&#39;s face it, haven&#39;t we all thought, &quot;Is there any dish at this wedding that doesn&#39;t have paneer?&quot; As wedding food in South Delhi and other areas gets fancier, people can&#39;t seem to get enough of paneer. Let&#39;s look at why it&#39;s both the life of the party and sometimes the guest who overstays their welcome.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Paneer: The King of Wedding Snacks</strong></h2>

<p>When you think about what to serve at a wedding, paneer always takes center stage. From tandoori paneer tikka to malai paneer rolls, you&#39;ll find it first at the appetizer station. Why? Because it ticks all the boxes:</p>

<p>It&#39;s Vegetarian-Friendly &ndash; It fits for the uncle who believes eating non-veg on a Thursday brings bad luck.</p>

<p>It&#39;s Versatile &ndash; You can grill, fry, stuff, or soak paneer in gravy. Whatever you think of, paneer can handle it.</p>

<p>It&#39;s Fancy but Familiar &ndash; It gives a luxurious feel but doesn&#39;t frighten those who consider &quot;exotic food&quot; to mean butter chicken.</p>

<p>But we can&#39;t ignore the big issue here&mdash;paneer is everywhere. After you&#39;ve had your third round of appetizers, you realize you&#39;ve just eaten paneer in six different ways. Paneer tikka? Yep. Paneer spring rolls? Sure. Paneer-stuffed mushrooms?</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>When Paneer Takes Control of the Main Course</strong></h2>

<p>As you move to the buffet, paneer&#39;s rule continues. The gravies section looks like a battlefield of paneer dishes for weddings. Shahi paneer, paneer lababdar, paneer butter masala&mdash;the list goes on and on. You might think the chef said, &quot;Let&#39;s give them three versions of the same dish and call it variety.&quot; When it comes to wedding catering in Gurgaon, this trend has reached new heights. You&#39;ll often see fancy twists like &quot;Thai Green Curry Paneer&quot; or &quot;Paneer Stroganoff.&quot; These dishes look impressive but taste a lot like the shahi paneer you ate five minutes ago. The real issue? While paneer steals the show other tasty vegetarian options&mdash;like koftas stuffed veggies, or even a simple dal&mdash;sit in the corner forgotten.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Paneer in Dessert? Please, No.</strong></h2>

<p>Just when you think you&#39;ve gotten away from the paneer parade, it shows up in dessert. Yeah, we&#39;re talking about paneer jalebis and paneer puddings. Who came up with this idea? Paneer in dessert feels like the cook&#39;s way of saying, &quot;You thought we were finished? Guess again!&quot;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Planning your wedding menu and trying to avoid &quot;The Paneer Problem&quot;? Here are some ideas to consider:</strong></h2>

<p>Keep Paneer to One or Two Dishes &ndash; Give your chef room to show off with other ingredients. Consider tandoori broccoli stuffed mushrooms, or cheesy nachos as appetizers.</p>

<p>Try Regional Dishes &ndash; Rather than offering generic shahi paneer why not include options like Kashmiri Chaman or Bengali chhana dalna?</p>

<p>Be Creative with Presentation &ndash; If paneer is a must-have, make it interesting! Paneer lollipops, paneer sliders, or paneer tacos can add a fun twist to your menu.</p>

<p>In the end, paneer resembles that one relative at every wedding who belts out too much karaoke&mdash;it&#39;s excessive, ubiquitous, but fun. If you&#39;re planning wedding catering in Gurgaon or collaborating with <a href="https://www.getyourmenu.in/function/wedding-caterers-delhi/" target="_blank">wedding caterers in South Delhi</a>, paneer will land on your plate. So welcome paneer! But perhaps just perhaps, allow the humble kofta or mushroom to shine too. After all, weddings benefit from a mix of flavors&mdash;just like life does.</p>
