How To Make Chilli Paneer

  1. Mix the Paneer cubes with corn flour, salt and pepper, fry it in a pan until the cubes brown. In a separate frying pan, fry the onions until brown, then add the chillies and cook for a couple of minutes.
  2. Pop in the peppers and fry until they’ve softened a little not too much as we still want the crunch.
  3. Add the paneer.
  4. Now pour in the tomato/chilli/soya sauce.
  5. Season and stir fry for 3-4 mins.
