Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Paneer
- 1 large Green bell pepper
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Yellow bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Ginger
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander leaves
Instructions
Cut the paneer into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
Wash and deseed the bell peppers. Cut them into similar-sized pieces as the paneer.
Finely chop the garlic cloves and grate the ginger to prepare the ginger-garlic mix.
Heat olive oil in a large pan or skillet over medium heat.
Add cumin seeds to the hot oil and let them crackle for a few seconds until aromatic.
Add the ginger-garlic mix to the pan and sauté until the raw smell disappears, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the chopped bell peppers and sauté for 3-4 minutes or until they start to soften but are still slightly crunchy.
Stir in coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well to coat the bell peppers with the spices.
Add the paneer cubes to the pan and gently mix to combine all ingredients. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the paneer is heated through and slightly golden.
Sprinkle garam masala over the mixture and give it a final toss.
Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves before serving.
Serve hot as a main dish or alongside keto-friendly flatbread.
