Method
- 1 Cut paneer, bell peppers, and onions into long strips of the same size.
- 2 Pan-fry paneer strips for 2 minutes until golden brown on the edges, then remove from the pan.
- 3 Sauté the cumin, then stir-fry the onions and bell peppers over the highest heat for exactly 3 minutes.
- 4 Stir-fry quickly over high heat to keep the vegetables crisp; that's the whole point of jalfrezi.
- 5 Add the tomatoes and vinegar and stir for 90 seconds without mashing them into a sauce.
- 6 Return the paneer to the pan and stir for 40 seconds, then sprinkle with garam masala, shredded ginger, and green chilies.
