The combination of sautéed onions, lightly crisp capsicum, creamy gravy, and buttery paneer makes this dish perfect for restaurants, cafés, catering menus, and indulgent home-style meals.

Ingredients
1 cup Sunbay Kadhai Gravy
⅓–½ lb paneer cubes
2 tbsp capsicum, cubed
2 tbsp onion, cubed
2 tsp oil
1 tbsp butter
1½ tbsp cream
Salt to taste
2–3 tbsp water (if required for consistency)
Method of Preparation
Step 1: Sauté the Vegetables
Heat oil in a kadai or deep pan over medium flame. Add cubed onions and sauté until translucent.
Step 2: Add Capsicum
Add cubed capsicum and stir-fry briefly while keeping it slightly crunchy for texture and freshness.
Step 3: Prepare the Gravy
Add the Sunbay Kadhai Gravy and mix well. Add a little water if required to achieve the desired consistency.
Step 4: Add Paneer
Bring the gravy to a gentle boil, then add paneer cubes. Simmer for about 2 minutes so the paneer absorbs the flavors without becoming rubbery.
Step 5: Finish with Butter & Cream
Add butter and cream, mixing gently until the gravy becomes rich and glossy. Avoid boiling after adding cream.
Step 6: Serve Hot
Adjust seasoning if needed and serve immediately.
Chef’s Tips
Lightly pan-fry the paneer before adding for extra texture and flavor.
Keep the capsicum slightly crunchy for authentic kadai-style texture.
Garnish with julienned ginger and coriander for restaurant-style presentation.
