Ingredients

Scale
  • 200 grams of Paneer, cubed
  • 1 cup of Quinoa, cooked
  • 1 Red bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 cups of Spinach, fresh
  • 1 cup of Cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons of Olive oil
  • 2 cloves of Garlic, minced
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon of Cumin

  • Instructions

  • Step 1: Rinse 1 cup of quinoa under cold water, then bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan. Add the rinsed quinoa, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
  • Step 2: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add chopped red bell pepper and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in fresh spinach and halved cherry tomatoes, cooking until the spinach wilts, about another 3 minutes.
  • Step 3: Add cubed paneer to the skillet, season with salt, pepper, and cumin. Cook for about 5 minutes until the edges of the paneer are golden brown.
  • Step 4: Add cooked quinoa to the skillet and gently fold everything together, ensuring the flavors meld nicely.
  • Step 5: Divide the paneer bowl into servings. Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil or cracked pepper. Serve immediately or store for later.
