What to know about A2Mate A2 Paneer
Two-ingredient paneer, heavy on saturated fat
A2Mate A2 Paneer is a 200 g block of paneer made from A2 milk and vinegar, and nothing else. It is sold to cooks who want a short ingredient list and a paneer for tikka, kadai or curry. The pack prints no percentages for the two ingredients.
Per 100 g you get 287 kcal, 18 g protein, 23 g fat, 2 g carbohydrate and no sugar, with 400 mg calcium and 200 mcg vitamin A. A 50 g serve, a quarter of the pack, is about 144 kcal and 9 g protein. The cost is fat: 14.7 g saturated fat per 100 g, about 7.4 g per serve.
The pack says made from whole milk and free from preservatives or additives, and the list backs both up. The one claim the numbers cannot test is that A2 milk is easier to digest. CleanPlate scores it AA3.
Why A2Mate A2 Paneer scores AA3
Nutrition and ingredients are both an A: 18 g protein, 400 mg calcium and a two-item list with no additives. Risk is a 3 because saturated fat is 14.7 g per 100 g.
Exceptional nutrient density

- Fibre
- Not declared
- Vitamins and minerals
- Calcium, Vitamin A
- Energy
- 287 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why A
Protein is 18 g per 100 g, and the milk is the main source. Calcium at 400 mg and vitamin A at 200 mcg per 100 g add a micronutrient bonus that lifts the grade.
In a 50 g serve that is 9 g protein, 200 mg calcium and 100 mcg vitamin A. No fortification is involved.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

- Sweeteners
- None added
- Additives

- Flagged
- None
02 Ingredient integrity: why A
The list is A2 milk and vinegar. No additive of concern is listed, and no hydrogenated fat, so the declared trans fat is accepted as it stands.
No label promise is hollow, so no ingredient points are lost for that. The only small gap is that no percentages are printed.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Moderate risk
- Total sugar
- 0 g
- Sodium
- 100 mg
- Saturated fat
- 14.7 g
- Trans fat
- 1 g
03 Load risk: why 3
Saturated fat is 14.7 g per 100 g, nearly three times the 5 g high line, and it is almost all of the risk number. A 50 g serve has about 7.4 g.
Sodium is only 100 mg per 100 g and energy is 287 kcal, so both add little. Sugar is 0 g. Trans fat is declared at 1.0 g per 100 g and does not add to the risk grade here.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does A2Mate A2 Paneer live up to its claims?
The whole-milk and no-additives claims hold, and the A2 milk is listed. The ease-of-digestion claim is one the label numbers cannot confirm.
- Product nameHolds
“A2 Paneer”
The ingredient list names A2 milk as the first and main ingredient, with vinegar to set it.

Recipes with A2Mate A2 Paneer
Paneer tikka, kadai paneer and curry all work. Keep to about 50 g a person, which gives 9 g protein.
Paneer tikka
Grill 50 g cubes a person for 9 g protein each, using little extra oil since the paneer already has 23 g fat per 100 g.
Kadai paneer
Cook the cubes in a tomato and pepper gravy with vegetables, so a 50 g serve is spread across more food.
Paneer curry
Soak the paneer in warm water for 5 minutes, as the pack suggests, then add it to a dal or vegetable curry in place of cream.
