Paneer Manchurian

Whenever we go to Mayuri Indian cuisine we have to order this as an appetizer.The paneer is very soft and this is my daughters favourite dish from their menu. So gave it a try and it came close to that, but she never agrees to that  .


1st group Ingerdients:
2 cups  cubed paneer
2 to 3 tbsp cornstarch+1 tbsp rice flour
1tsp ginger paste
½ tsp garlic paste
2 tbsp soy sauce
1tsp chilli garlic sauce
1 egg white or 3 tbsp water if you omit egg white
Salt to taste
½ tsp sugar
2nd group ingredients
½ cup  cubed onions
½ cup  cubed green bell peppers(capsicum)
3 or 4 chopped green chillies or jalapeno peppers
1 tsp chopped ginger
1 tsp chopped garlic
2 tbsp chopped coriander leaves
2 tbsp chopped spring onions
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp chilli garlic sauce
Oil for deep frying and sauteing the vegetables

Method:
Mix the 1st group of ingredients, except paneer and make a batter. (consistency should be like the dosa batter).
Dip the paneer cubes in this paste and deep fry till golden brown.Keep it aside.
Heat 3 Tbsp of oil in a wok. when it is hot, add the 2nd  group of ingredients, except coriander and spring onion and cook for a minute. Add soy sauce and chilli garlic sauce and  toss the  fried paneer. Sprinkle coriander leaves and spring onions . Serve this hot as an appetizer.
