About Jalfrezi

Jalfrezi is a vibrant and flavorful dish that originates from Indian cuisine, though it has gained popularity worldwide. Typically made by stir-frying marinated chunks of meat—commonly chicken or lamb—or paneer, alongside fresh vegetables like bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes, it is simmered in a spiced tomato-based sauce. Its bold flavors come from a blend of cumin, coriander, turmeric, chili, and sometimes garam masala. The dish is versatile and can be tailored to include a variety of ingredients, making it a nutrient-rich option packed with protein, fiber, and vitamins. However, depending on preparation methods, Jalfrezi can be high in fat if cooked with excessive oil or butter. When made with lean proteins and a moderate use of oil, it can be a wholesome and balanced meal. Served with rice or naan, Jalfrezi is a savory choice that brings a spicy kick with a nutritious profile.
