Cashew Chicken Recipe




Stir fried veggies is the easiest recipes I guess. I usually make this when I’m not in a mood to cook. Just add bit oil, add together the veggies, spices & salt to taste…..What a cushy job!

Most of the Chinese recipes are stir fried such as stir fried string beans, broccoli, mushrooms, eggplants, noodles etc. I love them even if they are bland in taste, but spice is essential in whatever I cook. This time my choice was button mushrooms and paneer. Both goes well for stir fried & because of its soft texture, it hardly takes time to cook…..

Directions

Mushrooms – a packet which consist of 12 to 15 mushrooms
Paneer- 10 to 15 cubes
Tomatoes- 1 big diced
Green chilies – 4 to 5
Coriander leaves to garnish
Jeera to splutter
Red chilly powder – 1 tsp
Turmeric powder- ½ tsp
Tandoori masala – 1 tsp
Oil as required
Salt as required

Method

Heat oil in a pan & add jeera to splutter

Add sliced mushrooms and paneer to it

Toss it for a while till the paneer turns light brownish. Do not constantly stir with spatula as there is a tendency to break up the paneer cubes.

Add all the spice powders to it & toss for another 2 minutes.

Add diced tomatoes and green chilies at this stage.

Simmer it for a while till the tomatoes are soft & well bended with mushrooms.

The whole cooking is done on slow to medium flame.
