This is one of those ridiculously simple dishes which for the minimal effort and time tastes as if lot more hard work has gone into it. I love this recipe for using few ingredients and which I can whip up in a matter of minutes at short notice.
“Kadai” or “Karahi” represents an Indian wok. A thick circular deep vessel mostly used for frying/simmering of stews. “Paneer” is Indian cottage Cheese. It uses the basic combo of Bell peppers and Paneer with different assortment of spices and herbs. I like to keep this dish as simple as possible without changing the essence of the dish and this is my version.
Method1.In a pan, stir in ginger garlic paste,cumin-coriander powder,turmeric and the red chilli in about 1 tsp of oil. Then add bell peppers. Stir in med-high heat for 2 min.
2.Add the tomatoes and salt and stir some more for about another 5 min until tomatoes get soft.
3.Add the Paneer and mix well. Just before removing it from the heat, add the kasoori methi, give a good toss for about 20-30 seconds and switch off the heat. Serve hot with Phulkas/ any flat bread of your choice.
