The Preparation

Step 1

Heat half a tablespoon of ghee in a non-stick pan. Add the paneer cubes along with a pinch of turmeric and salt. Sauté until the edges are golden brown. Remove and set aside.

Step 2

In the same pan, add the remaining ghee. Once hot, add mustard seeds and let them splutter.

Step 3

Add the curry leaves, slit green chilies, and asafoetida. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Toss in the steamed sprouted moong dal. Add the remaining turmeric, garam masala, and salt. Stir well to coat the sprouts with the tempering.

Step 5

Add the sautéed paneer cubes and the fresh grated coconut. Mix gently to ensure the paneer doesn't break while absorbing the spices.

Step 6

Cook on low heat for 2-3 minutes to let the flavors meld together.

Step 7

Turn off the heat. Drizzle with lemon juice and garnish with crushed peanuts and fresh coriander.

Step 8

Serve warm as a high-protein, nutrient-dense post-workout recovery bowl.
