Paneer(Cottage Cheese) in Oyster Sauce

I initially intended to make this dish with Mushrooms. I opened up the box and ironically the fungi had fungus growing on it. 

Luckily I had a packet of cottage cheese in the fridge and quickly replaced the fungus growing mushrooms.  Disaster averted. Huge sigh of relief!!!

Ingredients

• Paneer(cottage cheese) cut in cubes 250 gm
• 2 large onions diced
• 1 large Capsicum(Bell Pepper) diced
• 1 tsp julienne ginger
• 1 tbsp chopped garlic
• 2 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp soya sauce
• 2 tbsp oil
• salt and pepper to taste 

Preparation

• Heat oil in a non stick pan.
• Add the ginger and garlic. Fry till the raw smell goes and slightly browned.
• Next add the onions and fry till they are golden brown. Add some salt to speed up the process.
• Once the onions caramelize, add the capsicum. Fry for 5 minutes. 
• Next add the oyster sauce, soya sauce, salt and pepper. Mix it well with onion and capsicum.
• Add the cottage cheese and mix it well. Be careful while stirring not to crumble the paneer. 
• Fry for another minute and remove from fire. Garnish with some spring onions.

Serve with fried rice, noodles or rotis. This can be used as a sandwich filling or even as a starter. 

Note: If you want to make with mushrooms. Add them after adding capsicum and fry for a couple of minutes till they are cooked. Then add the sauces and fry for a minute.
