This gravy was outstandingly delicious, even if I do say so myself- I was toying with a couple of other titles for this one when my daughter in her inimitable style came up with the title I’ve gone with. The base gravy/curry/sauce (call it what you will) was made with yellow and orange bell peppers, habanero and green chilis – So the name is quite apt for the dish. While the tongue tingled and the flavors of the peppers danced on our tongues -the innate sweetness of the bell peppers and the flaming heat of the habanero, and their combined distinctive aromas, we enjoyed this with homemade garlic naan which too I shall be blogging about. This will be a sure fire hit in all home with a penchant for paneer dishes – guaranteed success, folks

Ingredients
1 block of paneer as sold in the Indian stores
1 each of the orange & yellow bell peppers
½ a habanero
½ a red onion (optional, but I used them)
2 ripe roma tomatoes
10-12 pieces of roasted Planters cashews
2 cloves of garlic (optional)
1tsp of turnmeric
A sprig of sage (about 2-4 leaves)
2 tsp of olive oil
Salt
Preparation
Chop your peppers and cube your paneer
Heat tsp of oil and throw in all the ingredients (except the paneer) and saute until veggies soften
Cool and grind into sauce
Use the 2nd tsp of oil to lightly fry the paneer cubes
Add the sauce over the paneer and simmer for a bit till the paneer soaks in the sauce.
Serve hot with naan or even with rice or pasta!

The only time I have ever had paneer was in a frozen lunch entree and I really liked it even in that so I KNOW I would love this. Now all I have to do is hunt some down.
This really sounds delicious and it certainly is a healthy dish. I love your use of bell peppers in this recipe. They add a distinctive flavor to sauces where they are used. I hope you have a great day. Blessings…Mary
