Tag: Chilly Paneer is a beloved Indo-Chinese dish that features crispy paneer (Indian cottage cheese) cubes tossed in a spicy and tangy sauce. The paneer is typically cut into bite-sized pieces, coated in a light batter, and deep-fried until golden and crunchy, providing a satisfying texture. The sauce is a flavorful blend of soy sauce, chili sauce, and vinegar, often enhanced with garlic, ginger, and aromatic spices. The dish is packed with heat from green chilies, and it may include colorful bell peppers and onions, adding both crunch and a burst of flavor. Chilly Paneer can be prepared in two styles: dry, where the paneer and vegetables are lightly coated in the sauce, making it a perfect appetizer or snack, or in a gravy form, which is saucier and pairs wonderfully with fried rice or noodles. Garnished with chopped green onions and sometimes sesame seeds, Chilly Paneer offers a delightful combination of crispy paneer and bold, spicy flavors, making it a favorite choice for those who enjoy a bit of heat in their meals. Each bite is a delicious fusion of textures and tastes, showcasing the best of both Indian and Chinese cuisines.
