Paneer Fried Rice




INGREDIENTS:
Serves:2

1 cup Rice
2 cups water

3 tablespoons Olive Oil

5 strings Spring Onion
2-3 Green chillies (or 1 teaspoon Chilli sauce)
2 small Carrots
1 big Capsicum

1/2 cup Sweet Corn ( I used frozen)
1 cup Paneer cubes

1 1/4 teaspoon Pepper Powder
1 teaspoon Soy sauce
1-2 teaspoon Tomato sauce
1 1/2 teaspoon Salt (or as needed)

PROCEDURE:
1. Cook rice with water in a pressure cooker and keep aside.
2. Cube the paneer and keep them immersed in hot water till use. This will soften the paneer.
3. Cut the white and green part of the spring onion separately. Cut carrots and capsicum to small pieces.
4. Roughly crumble the paneer or chop into small pieces as below.


5. In a heavy bottom pan, add olive oil, white part of spring onion and then the carrots, capsicum and sweet corn.
6. Saute in a medium high flame, add pepper, soy and tomato sauce, salt and lastly add the crumbled paneer and green part of the spring onion.
7. Add the cooked and cooled rice and mix well.

NOTES:
1. The original recipe is here. I just replaced cabbage with paneer and sweet corn.
2. Do not over fry the vegetables. Fry until the raw taste of carrots goes off.
