Paneer Stirfry and Noodles

Ingredients (Serves 2)

• For the Noodles:

  • 150g spaghetti or noodles of choice

  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

• For the Stir-Fry:

  • 200g Mooj Foods’ plain paneer, cubed

  • 1 cup broccoli florets

  • 1/2 cup red bell peppers, sliced

  • 1/2 cup carrots, thinly sliced

  • 1/4 cup scallions (green onions), chopped

  • 1 small onion, sliced

  • 2 tablespoons peanuts, crushed

  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil (for stir-frying)

• For the Sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 1 tablespoon chili crunch

  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

  • 1 tablespoon water (optional, to adjust consistency)

Instructions

1. Cook the Noodles:

   • Cook the spaghetti or noodles according to package instructions. Drain and toss with 1 tablespoon sesame oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.

2. Prepare the Sauce:

   • In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, chili crunch, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, and water (if needed). Set aside.

3. Stir-Fry the Paneer and Vegetables:

   • Heat 2 tablespoons sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

   • Add the paneer cubes and stir-fry until golden and slightly crispy on the edges, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.

   • In the same skillet, add the onions and stir-fry until translucent, about 2 minutes.

   • Add the broccoli, bell peppers, and carrots. Stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

   • Toss in the scallions and cooked paneer. Stir to combine.

4. Add the Sauce:

   • Pour the prepared sauce over the stir-fry. Toss well to coat all the ingredients evenly. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

5. Combine with Noodles:

   • Serve the stir-fried paneer and veggies alongside the cooked noodles or mix everything together, depending on your preference.

6. Garnish and Serve:

   • Sprinkle crushed peanuts over the top for added crunch. Serve hot and enjoy!
