Making Chilli Paneer-

Take corn flour, maida, ginger garlic paste, salt and black pepper powder in a mixing bowl.


Add ¼ cup water and make a smooth and lump free batter. The batter should be neither too thick nor thin. To see the batter consistency watch my video.


Chop paneer into cubes and add to batter. Mix gently to coat paneer with batter.


Now heat oil in a pan. When the oil is hot enough, add the paneer pieces in it and fry them till they turn golden in colour. Stir continuously. When they done, remove from oil and keep aside.


Don’t throw the leftover batter, we will use it later as a slurry.
Heat 3 tbsp. oil in a pan. When it became hot, add chopped garlic cloves, ½ tsp. ginger paste and chopped white spring onion. Sauté till raw aroma goes away.


Add chopped onion, sauté till they become translucent.


Add cubed onion, capsicum and green chilli, saute till they become soft.


Add red chilli sauce, tomato sauce, soya sauce and mix.


Sprinkle salt and some chopped spring onion. Mix well.
Add ¼ cup water in leftover batter and make a smooth paste. 


Pour this slurry into pan and mix.
If it is thick, add ¼ cup more water and mix well.  Sauce will begin to thicken.
Add fried paneer cubes and mix to coat with sauce very well. Add vinegar and mix.


Chilli paneer is ready. Remove from pan and sprinkle some chopped spring onion.

Making Chinese Bhel-

Boil water in a sauce pan. Add ½ tsp. salt and 1 tsp. oil. Add noodles and boil on medium heat. When they become soft, strain them. Then rinse with cool water. Take boiled noodles in a plate and spread to cool down.


Heat oil in a pan fry noodles in two batches till they become golden brown on low flame. When they done, remove them and keep aside.


In a mixing bowl, take schezwan sauce, tomato sauce and soya sauce.


Add cabbage, carrot, capsicum, onion, spring onion and green chilli. Mix well.Add salt to taste and mix.
