Ingredients
- 2 tbs olive oil
- 250g paneer, cut into 1cm-thick slices
- 1 brown onion, finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbs fresh ginger, finely chopped
- 10 curry leaves
- 1 tbs curry powder
- 150g bean shoots

- ½ cauliflower, cut into small florets
- 100g green beans, halved
- 4 medium tomatoes, diced
- ½ cup fresh coriander, plus extra to serve

Method
- Heat 1 tbs oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add in the paneer and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until lightly charred. Set aside.
- With the heat still on medium, add in the remaining oil, plus the onion, garlic, and ginger and cook, for around 5 minutes, stirring regularly.
- Add in the curry leaves and powder and cook for 2 minutes. Stir constantly, scraping the base of the pan with a wooden spoon.
- Add the bean shoots, pumpkin, cauliflower, green beans, tomatoes and 1 and a half cups of water. Bring the mixture to the boil, reduce to a simmer, season with salt and pepper to taste, and then cover with a lid.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
- Remove the lid, add in the chopped coriander and paneer and cook for a further 1 minute or until the paneer is warmed through.
- Serve topped with coriander and a side of rice or naan bread.
