Broccoli, Baby Corn and Paneer Stir Fry
by Tarla Dalal
Broccoli, baby corn and paneer stir-fry is a flavourful combination of fresh veggies and lemon grass. It is interesting to note that lemon grass, which is generally used as a garnish or flavouring agent, is used as a key ingredient in generous quantities in this recipe. Since the vegetables are stir-fried on a high flame, the vibrant colours are retained to a large extent, making this dish a visual treat too. The use of seasoning cubes enhances the flavour while also simplifying the preparation, making it so quick and easy that you can conjure up this oriental delicacy any day you wish!
