Method:
Deseed & soak the kashmiri red chillies in hot water for 1-2 hours then add them into a mixer grinder jar with a splash of water & grind them into a fine paste, your red chilli paste is ready.
Set a pan over high flame & once it gets hot, add the oil & let the oil heat up as well.
Further add the red chilli paste, stir well & cook over medium high flame until the paste turns crumbly/coarse in texture & all the oil is released, this process will take 4-5 minutes.
Once cooked, add vinegar & stir well, your cooked chilli paste is ready, transfer it into a bowl & cool it down, you can also store it in an airtight container.
Add the cut paneer pieces into a large bowl & dust them with 3 tablespoons of corn flour, use a sieve to dust the flour & then toss the bowl to coat the paneer pieces, add only 2 tablespoons of corn flour first, mix once & then add the remaining.
Once coated, carefully fry the paneer in 175° C (moderately hot) oil until slightly golden brown & then transfer them into a sieve using a spider.
To make the sauce heat a wok over high flame & then add oil.
Add ginger, garlic, coriander stems, spring onion whites & green chillies, stir well & cook over high flame for a minute.
Further lower the flame & add red chilli paste, red chilli sauce, ketchup, soy sauce, & vinegar, stir well & cook over high flame for 1-2 minutes.
Add the hot water to adjust the consistency, then add white pepper powder, sugar & salt, stir well.
Further mix the corn flour & water in a bowl to make a slurry, add the slurry gradually to the sauce while stirring it continuously, adjust the slurry as required.
Once the sauce thickens add in the veggies, spring onion whites, fried paneer & spring onion greens & toss over low flame (or switch off the flame) to coat the paneer.
Your delicious restaurant style schezwan paneer is ready.
