History of Chilli Paneer

---

Chilli Paneer is an Indo- Chinese cuisine or we can say it is an Indian duped Chinese cuisine where we have replaced traditional Chinese core ingredient such as fish, chicken etc. by our traditional and evergreen and all time favorite Paneer.
Paneer is just nothing but a kind of fresh curd or a non-melting farmer cheese, found very commonly in South Asian countries such as Afghan, Bangladesh, Indian Nepal, and Pakistan. It is commonly known as Cottage cheese and it is so because it can be easily made at home. There also exists a moist form of Paneer, which is known as Chhena and it is very popular in the west Bengal state of India. There are many dishes which can be made by Paneer including starter, main course, deserts, everything such as:

Chili Paneer
Chhena murgi
Mattar paneer
Sandesh
Rasgulla
Rasmalai and much more.

Now let us get back to our product i.e. Chilli Paneer as I was saying it is an Indo- Chinese and it is very nutritious and healthy in addition to being an extremely delicious dish. It can be served as both starter and a main course dish as well. As a starter, we can have it as a snack or core ingredient in either dry form or in gravy form while as the main course you use it as a secondary ingredient along with noodles or rice or even with any kind of bread.

The authentic recipe of this dish is originated from China consisting of Chinese culinary Skills and flavours but gets popularity due to overseas Chinese communities and there is no doubt that these Chinese communities have made their Chinese culinary Skills viral in India and specially because of those who are settled in the region of west Bengal chilli Paneer is invented as they have tried a various in their traditional food with a new flavour and as a result we all have one more good dish in our menu. Chilli Paneer is just simply a dish where Cottage cheese is fried into a sauce of red chili and served with green onion sticks and parsley.
