Written Recipe – Paneer in Hot Garlic Sauce with Burnt Chilli Garlic Fried Rice
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 25-30 minutes
Serves: 3-4 people

Vegetable Prep
Ingredients:
GARLIC | लहसुन 25–30 CLOVES
GINGER | अदरक 3 INCH
GREEN CHILLI | हरी मिर्च 3 NOS.
CARROT | गाजर 1 NO.
CAPSICUM | शिमला मिर्च 1 SMALL SIZED
FRENCH BEANS | फ्रेंच बीन्स 4–5 NOS.
BELL PEPPER | बेल पेपर 1 NO.
ONION | प्याज़ 1 MEDIUM SIZED.
SPRING ONION | हरा प्याज़ 2 NOS.
Method:
Chop the garlic, ginger & green chillies together using a string chopper or a knife if that is convenient & set it aside. The chopped ginger, garlic & green chilli mixture will be used to make both, the sauce & the rice.
Peel & roughly cut the carrot, roughly cut the bell pepper & french beans too, add them into the chopper & chop them coarsely. This veggie mixture will be used to make the fried rice.
Cut the bell pepper & onion into triangles for the sauce. You can use mixed bell peppers too for this recipe or you can only use one of your choice.
Cut & separate the white & green portion of the spring onion, roughly chop the whites & finely chop the greens.
You will also need about 4 cups of cooked rice to make the fried rice, the link is mentioned above in the description.

Paneer in Hot Garlic Sauce
Ingredients:
PANEER | पनीर 350 GRAMS
OIL | तेल 1–2 TSP (for shallow frying)
CORN FLOUR | कॉर्न फ्लोर 1–2 TBSP
WATER | पानी 2–3 TBSP
OIL | तेल 2 TBSP (for cooking sauce)
RED CHILLI | लाल मिर्च 3–4 NOS.
RED CHILLI SAUCE | रेड चिली सॉस 2 TBSP
SCHEZWAN SAUCE | शेज़वान सॉस 1 TBSP
KETCHUP | केचप 1 TBSP
LIGHT SOY SAUCE | लाइट सोया सॉस 1 TSP
VINEGAR | सिरका 1/2 TSP
SUGAR | शक्कर A PINCH
WHITE PEPPER | सफेद मिर्च पाउडर A PINCH
SALT | नमक TO TASTE
HOT WATER | गरम पानी AS REQUIRED
Method:
If the paneer block is thick, slice it into 2 slabs. Heat a nonstick pan with very little oil and shallow-fry the slabs until golden on both sides. Remove and let them cool slightly, then cut into cubes. This method is easier and keeps the cubes intact.
In a small bowl, mix corn flour with a little water to make a smooth slurry. Keep it ready before starting the sauce.
Heat a wok over high flame, add oil, and let it get hot. Add chopped ginger, garlic, green chilli, and whole spicy red chillies, save about a tablespoon of the garlic, ginger & green chillies for the fried rice. Sauté briefly, do not overcook the garlic, the flavour should stay sharp and aromatic.
Add onion petals, bell pepper petals, and spring onion whites. Stir-fry on high flame for a few seconds.
Add all the sauces, sugar, vinegar, white pepper, and salt. Mix well.
Lower the flame and add the prepared corn flour slurry while stirring continuously until the sauce thickens to a glossy consistency.
Add the fried paneer cubes and gently toss so they are coated well in the hot garlic sauce.
Add chopped spring onion greens, give a final mix, and turn off the heat.
Your Paneer in Hot Garlic Sauce is ready to serve!
Burnt Chilli Garlic Fried Rice
Ingredients:
OIL | तेल 1 TBSP
RED CHILLI | लाल मिर्च 2–3 NOS.
STAR ANISE | चक्र फूल 1–2 NOS.
LIGHT SOY SAUCE | लाइट सोया सॉस 1 TSP
VINEGAR | सिरका 1 TSP
COOKED RICE | पका हुआ चावल 4 CUPS
SALT | नमक TO TASTE
SUGAR | शक्कर A PINCH
WHITE PEPPER POWDER | सफेद मिर्च पाउडर A LARGE PINCH
HOT WATER | गरम पानी A SPLASH
Method:
Place a wok or kadhai on high flame and let it get smoking hot. Add oil and allow it to heat thoroughly.
Add chopped ginger, garlic, green chilli, whole red chillies, and star anise. Sauté until the garlic and chillies turn lightly burnt for that signature burnt chilli–garlic flavour. Do not rush this step, but also do not completely burn or else the fried rice will turn bitter.
Add the chopped mixed vegetables. Stir-fry on high flame for 1–2 minutes. The veggies should stay crunchy.
Pour soy sauce around the edges of the wok (so it gets lightly charred), add vinegar, and mix well.
Add the cooked rice along with salt, sugar, and white pepper. Stir-fry on high flame for 2–3 minutes, ensuring everything is well combined.
Add a small splash of hot water and toss. This creates steam, helping the rice stay soft, moist, and fluffy.
Your Burnt Chilli Garlic Fried Rice is ready to serve!
