Cottage cheese or paneer capsicum stir fry.
A delicious yet very easy to make side dish. Something like chilli paneer but you don’t have to fry the paneer or make a batter. Just fry the onions till translucent and all the ingredients.
And your lip smacking dish is ready.

Nothing comes closes to paneer and capsicum combo. I always love kadai paneer preferably with more capsicum, I am sure this dish tastes heavenly with additional flavours from schezwan sauce.
