Vitamin C and fibre abound in this healthy rendition of the all-time Chinese favourite. This aromatic and flavourful stir-fry is not only healthy but also easy to prepare. While it does take some time to chop and prepare the ingredients, the cooking time is very less, making it a relatively quick dish too. This nutritious version of the Mushroom, Capsicum and Paneer Stir-Fry differs from the original recipe by using low-fat paneer, which provides abundant high quality protein at very low calorie counts. That makes this a delightful dish that can be enjoyed by diabetics too!
