How to make Baby corn and Paneer Jalfrazie

Before making the Baby corn and Paneer Jalfrazie, keep all the vegetables ready and keep them aside.
Heat the oil in a wok/kadhai or a deep non-stick pan and add the spring onion whites to it.Sauté on a medium flame for 1 minute.
Now, add the bell peppers. We have used all three colors. First add the green capsicum.
Now, add the red and yellow capsicums as well.

Mix well and sauté on a medium flame for 2 to 3 minutes, till the capsicum turn a little soft but still have a little crunch.
Now, add the baby corn. This is diagonally cut and blanched. Blanching is the process of boiling a vegetable till half cooked and then putting it in cold water.
Then, we add the spices. First add the turmeric powder.
Also, add the chilli powder.
Add the coriander-cumin seed powder as well. This will give an earthy taste to Baby corn and Paneer Jalfrazie.

Add the tomatoes as well.
Now, add the tomato ketchup for a slightly sweet taste.
Also, add the tomato purée. This is simply made by boiling the tomatoes, peeling off their skin and then blending them into a smooth puree. Mix well and sauté on a medium flame for 1 to 2 minutes, while stirring occasionally. We have a recipe on how to make tomato puree at home that you can check out.
Now, add the paneer which has been cut into strips.
Add garam masala for a smoky, indian flavor in the Baby corn and Paneer Jalfrazie.

Also, add vinegar.
Add the sugar to balance the sourness from the vinegar and the tomatoes.
Finally, add the salt to taste to the Baby corn and Paneer Jalfrazie.
Mix or toss gently as you do not want the paneer to break and cook on a medium flame for 1 minute.
Add the spring onion greens now.

If the Baby corn and Paneer Jalfrazie is too dry, add a little water. Mix well and cook on a medium flame for 1 more minute, while stirring occasionally.
Serve the Babycorn and Paneer Jalfrazie immediately garnished with spring onion greens.
