About Paneer capsicum

Paneer Capsicum is a vibrant and flavorful dish widely enjoyed in Indian cuisine. It features paneer, a fresh, non-aged cheese rich in protein and calcium, paired with crunchy capsicum (bell peppers) that bring essential vitamins like C and A to the plate. Typically cooked in a lightly spiced tomato-based gravy or stir-fried with aromatic seasonings, the dish combines satisfying textures and bold flavors. Its origins lie in North Indian culinary traditions, where dairy and fresh vegetables play an important role. While paneer provides a good source of healthy fats and protein, its calorie content can be high, making portion control important. Capsicum adds fiber and antioxidants, promoting digestion and boosting immunity. Variations of the dish may include additional spices, onions, or other vegetables, offering both nourishment and taste. Paneer Capsicum is a wholesome choice in moderation, particularly when prepared with minimal oils and balanced spices.
