Paneer Baby-corn Bell-pepper Stir Fry

Paneer Baby-corn Bell-pepper stir fry is a quick and easy dish that looks beautiful because of the colorful vegetables. It goes well with both rice and chapati. It can be prepared in a few minutes.
Kasuri Methi (dried fenugreek leaves) is the main ingredient which has a bitter taste and a characteristic smell.
Here it is used with cottage cheese/paneer, bell pepper, and baby corn. In this recipe, the soft textures of the corn and paneer is beautifully balanced by the crunchiness of the bell pepper and onion.

Father's Day Note:
Happy Father's Day! Today's recipe is for my Father. My Father is a protective shield for me and protecting me against all the problems of my life. Thank him for being my strong support in my life. I am away from my country since last 4 years. Last year my father paid a visit to me out of his busy schedule only for me. During his 15 days stay I was so excited and prepared a lot of dishes. He loved all of them and Paneer Baby-corn Bell pepper stir fry is one of his favorites and today I am missing him so much!
