Paneer chilli dry with garlic flavor (Shallow fried) instructions

Make a thick-ish paste of all the ingredients of marinade. Soak paneer pieces in it about 15-20 minutes Refer Image 1.
Add 3-4 tbsp of oil (I used canola oil, you can use any oil available) in a pan and shallow fry paneer on medium heat. Turn it over when cooked side is of golden brown color, repeat till all sides have the same color Refer Image 2.
Drain the paneer and set it aside on a paper towel. It is fine if it slightly burns a few sides.
In the same pan add chopped onions, chopped white part of spring onions, capsicum and green chillies. Cook until onion turns transparent (2-3 minutes).
Next, turn flame high and add ginger garlic paste, sugar, chilli sauce, soya sauce and tomato ketch up. Stir-fry on high for 30 seconds (maximum) until well blended and turn flame to medium heat.
Add fried paneer cubes, corn flour and water paste. Taste and add the salt accordingly as the sauces will have salt. Stir and cook for 3-4 minutes till corn flour paste thickens and sauces come around paneer.
Add chopped green part of spring onion just before serving and toss it well.
Serve the dish hot. Trust me garlic flavor tastes awesome as paneer coating.
Note: * I used longer diced slice. If you are using frozen paneer then take 1 glass of warm water in a pan and put the paneer for about 10-15 minutes so that paneer will become soft and you can easily cut it into slices..
