About Chilli Paneer

Chilli Paneer is an Indo-Chinese appetizer where crisp batter fried paneer is tossed in slightly sweet, spicy, hot and tangy chilli sauce.

While Garlic and green chilies bring in hot & pungent aroma, various sauces like chilli sauce, soya sauce and vinegar are used to impart some Chinese flavors. Veggies like onions, spring onions & bell pepper add body to the dish & corn starch brings an essential silky and smooth feel to the chilli paneer sauce.
