Recipe for Paneer Jalfrezi
Ingredients
- Sunflower oil 2 tbsps
- Cumin seeds 1 tsp
- Large onion, finely sliced 1
- Ginger-garlic paste 1 tbsp
- Turmeric powder 1/2 tsp
- Chilli powder 1/2 tsp
- Coriander powder 1/2 tsp
- Salt
- Green pepper sliced 150 g
- Ripe tomatoes, sliced 2
- Paneer, cubed 150 g
- Chopped coriander leaves to garnish
Cooking Directions
Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and fry the cumin seeds for 1 minute.
Add the onion and fry until soft.
Add the garlic-ginger paste and fry for a few seconds until well blended.
Sprinkle in the spice powders and cook on low heat until the oil begins to separate, in about three minutes.
Stir frequently to prevent scorching.
Add the peppers, stir and simmer gently until they are nearly done but still able to hold their shape, for about 8 minutes.
Add the tomatoes and paneer and cook for a couple of minutes until soft but not mushy, the tomatoes will begin to soften at once because of the salt that has already been added.
Take off the heat and serve hot, garnished with coriander leaves.
