Ingredients-
- Uptown fresh 6-8 leaves of romaine lettuce
- 225g (8oz) block of paneer, chopped into small cubes
- 1 green chilli, chopped finely
- 1 white onion, chopped finely
- 2 garlic cloves, sliced
- 1 tsp minced ginger
- Sauce
- 2 Tbsp tomato puree
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp chili garlic sauce
Direction-
- First, whisk together the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
- Coat the bottom of a wok with oil, and heat to a high heat setting.
- Throw in the chopped onion and green pepper, stir fry for a couple of minutes, just to give them a head start before adding the paneer.
- Add the cubed paneer, and continue to stir fry at high heat, tossing regularly, until all ingredients are browned and crispy. It will be tricky to ensure that each tiny cube of paneer is browned evenly on all sides so don't worry too much- there will be a mix of textures, and that's good too!
- Add the garlic and ginger and stir fry for another minute. It should be smelling delicious at this point!
- Once the paneer, pepper and onions are nicely browned, turn the heat to low, pour in the sauce, and mix constantly to coat. It will sizzle and bubble a lot, but after a minute or two you will have a nice sticky mixture.
- To assemble the wraps, just spoon some filling into a lettuce leaf and eat taco-style! Delicious!
