Steps

30 minutes

1

Cook the basmati rice and let it cool completely. You can keep the cooked rice in the refrigerator to get extra-firm rice if you prefer. You can also use leftover rice for this recipe.
2

I used carrots, bell peppers, and green beans, in this recipe. You may add other veggies like green peas, sweet corn, broccoli, and mushrooms.
3

Cut the paneer into 1-inch cubes (you should get about 1 cup for this recipe). Add red chili powder, salt, ginger-garlic paste, garam masala powder, corn flour... Mix everything well. Marinate for 15 minutes.
4

Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a pan. Once the oil is hot, add marinated paneer cubes. Saute for 4-5 minutes until paneer turns golden brown on all sides. Remove them from the pan and keep aside. You can also air fryer paneer to get the best results.
5

Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add chopped garlic cloves and saute for a few seconds. Next, add ½ cup white spring onions and saute on high for about a minute till the onions are slightly soft.
6

Add 1 ½ cups of chopped mixed vegetables (carrot, green beans, green, yellow, red bell peppers) and stir fry for 2 to 3 minutes on high heat till they are tender and crisp. Do not overcook the veggies.
7

Add soya sauce mix well.
8

Add the cooked basmati rice, salt, and ground black pepper. Gently toss the rice and stir-fry for 2 minutes or until heated through. Finally, add sauteed paneer, and garnish with ¼ cup spring onion greens. Toss everything well.
