Chilli Paneer

Chilli Paneer is a popular Indo-Chinese dish that combines soft, cubed paneer (Indian cottage cheese) with a spicy and tangy sauce. The paneer cubes are lightly coated in a seasoned batter and fried until golden and crispy. They are then tossed in a flavorful stir-fry of garlic, ginger, green chilies, bell peppers, and onions, all coated in a sauce made from soy sauce, chili sauce, and vinegar. This dish is known for its bold flavors and the perfect balance of heat and tanginess. Chilli Paneer is often garnished with spring onions and served hot, making it a highly successful appetizer or side dish that’s loved by many, whether served dry or with gravy. It's a favorite in restaurants and at home, enjoyed with fried rice, noodles, or as a stand-alone snack.
