As u all know , chilli paneer is an indo-Chinese recipe which has got an awesome blend of indian & chinese ingredients.I made this for my daughter’s lunch along with fried rice. She liked it a lot.I usually make
gobi 65 and very rarely i make deep fried
paneer recipes..But after trying this , i thought to prepare this very often in my kitchen. Its a great side dish for
fried rice &
dal rice 
. My daughter relished it with tomato sauce.U can have this as evening snack or as a starter recipe for lunch/dinner.Do try this for ur kids , they’ll love it a lot.

METHOD
- Soak paneer pieces in hot water for sometime.In a wide bowl , take the flour , g&g paste , salt & pepper powder.Add little water to make a thick batter.Drain all the water completely and then add the paneer cubes & make sure the batter coats the paneer pieces very well. Leave it aside.
 
- In a kadai , heat oil and saute the onions , green chillies and garlic..Now add all the tomato sauce , soya sauce , salt & mix well.Lastly add the capsicum pieces & saute for a minute. Capsicum should be crunchy. So don’t saute too much. Add the pepper powder ..
- At the same time deep fry the paneer pieces & add them immediately to the above sauteed mixture..& toss well for few seconds..By doing this way paneer pieces can retain its crispness for sometime while eating.. ( For more crispness , deep fry paneer pieces twice before adding to the onion mixture (ie , first deep fry the paneer pieces &set aside.After it becomes warm again deep fry & add them to the sauteed mixture ) I got this tip from a road side chaat shop )
Serve immediately.Enjoy eating hot with fried rice or as starter ! |
I served like this for my daughter
