How to Make Chilli Capsicum Paneer (Dry Version)
Ye pura process 3 simple steps me hota hai — paneer fry karo, veggies stir-fry karo, sab mix kar do. Bas.
1. Batter Coating & Frying Paneer
Sabse pehle paneer cubes ko ek bowl me dalo.
Maida + cornflour + thoda sa namak + pepper daal ke halka sa batter bana lo (zyaada patla nahi).
Paneer ko ache se coat karo.
Ab hot oil me paneer ko golden crispy hone tak fry kar lo. Chahe to shallow fry ya air fry bhi kar sakte ho — crisp fir bhi acha aayega.
2. Stir-Frying Capsicum, Onion & Sauce Mix
Ek wok ya kadai me thoda tel garam karo.
Usme garlic daal kar 5–10 sec bhuno.
Phir onion aur capsicum daal do — bas thoda sa toss karo, overcook mat karna.
Ab sauces ka combo daal do: soy sauce + chilli sauce + ketchup.
Thoda salt & pepper adjust kar lo.
Sauce bas halka sa thick hona chahiye — na zyaada dry na watery.
3. Sabko Mix Karo – Aur Khatam!
Fried paneer ko wok me daal ke fast toss karo taki coating soft na ho.
Gas off karne se pehle thoda spring onion daal do…
Aur bas!
Ghar-style nahi… bilkul restaurant-style chilli capsicum paneer ready.
Dry vs Gravy Chilli Capsicum Paneer
Dry version snacks aur starters ke liye perfect.
Gravy version rice/noodles ke saath best lagta hai.
Gravy banana ho to:
Thoda extra cornflour slurry + water daal ke gravy banalo. Baaki sab same hi process hai.
Substitutions & Variations
Vegan: Paneer ki jagah tofu use kar lo
Gluten-free: Maida skip, sirf cornflour use karo
Less oil: Air-fried paneer
Less spicy: Chilli sauce kam use karo, ketchup thoda extra
Har version tasty hota hai — bas balance sahi rakho.
Serving Ideas

Wrap ke andar fill karke chilli paneer roll bhi bana sakte ho
