About Chilli paneer

Chilli Paneer is a popular Indo-Chinese dish that blends Indian flavors with Chinese-style cooking techniques. It features diced paneer, a fresh Indian cottage cheese that’s rich in protein and calcium, stir-fried with bell peppers, onions, and green chilies. The dish is coated in a flavorful sauce made from soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, ginger, and sometimes ketchup, offering a balance of savory, tangy, and spicy notes. While paneer provides essential nutrients like protein and calcium, the dish is often prepared with deep-frying or generous amounts of cooking oil, which may increase its calorie and fat content. The sauce, though delicious, can be high in sodium due to soy sauce and added condiments. Chilli Paneer can be enjoyed dry as a starter or in a gravy form as part of a main course. Moderation in portion size and mindful preparation can make this fusion favorite a more balanced indulgence.
