Method
0 of 6 done- Cut the paneer into bite-sized cubes. Slice the onion into thin wedges and the pepper into strips so they cook quickly and evenly.
- Heat the Olive Oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the paneer and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, turning the pieces so they are lightly browned on a few sides, then lift them out onto a plate.
- Add the onion and pepper to the pan with a pinch of salt. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring now and then, until the onion softens and the pepper starts to take on a little colour but still has some bite.
- Stir in the cumin, coriander, turmeric, chilli powder and black pepper. Cook for 30 seconds, just until the spices smell cooked rather than raw.
- Return the paneer to the pan and toss everything together. Add the lemon juice and cook for 1 minute more, just until the paneer is hot through and coated evenly.
- Taste and adjust the salt if needed. Finish with the chopped fresh coriander and serve at once with rice, roti or in a wrap.
