Quick, delicious and easy to make….
A chunk of home made or store bought cheese ( paneer) cut in 1 inch pieces
1 tbsp mustard oil
1/2 tsp each mustard seeds, onion seeds and fennel seeds, cumin seeds
a pinch of hing ( asafetida)
10 pieces of curry leaves
1 tsp tumeric powder
1 tsp coriander powder
1 cup peas
1 cup diced green/red pepper
Heat the oil in a heavy bottomed pan and add the seeds. Once the seeds have popped, add the curry leaves and hing. Saute for 30 secs on medium heat and add tumeric and coriander. Add the cheese pieces and fry until coated with all the spices and they turn a little brown. Add pepper and peas ( i used frozen). Let everything cook covered for about 5 – 10 mins. The dish should be dry as in the picture. Garnish with mint and lime juice. Serve with bread or rice. I served it with the Karela roti I have in the earlier posts
