Crispy Chilli Paneer

The Indo-Chinese restaurant favorite made at home: paneer cubes coated in a light cornstarch batter and shallow-fried until crisp, then tossed over high heat with onion petals, bell pepper, green chiles and garlic in a tangy soy, vinegar, chili and tomato sauce. On the table in 30 minutes; serve it as a starter or with fried rice or noodles.
