Roasted Bell Pepper Salad

Been a while since my last post..couple of recipes pending to be posted ! This was supposed to be a filling for tex-mex Fajitas, but ended up being devoured as a salad by a friend on a serious no-carb diet :) So use the  dish as you please..a filling for pancakes/crepes/fajitas/frankies or a side dish or a salad (cold/warm)..

Ingredients (serves 4)

2 red bell peppers, cut into thin long slices
2 yellow bell peppers,cut into thin long slices
1 large onion, finely sliced
1/2 cup paneer, cubed
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon crushed garlic
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Few leaves fresh basil
Salt to taste
Crushed black pepper

1. Heat the oil in a light bottomed pan. When hot, add the garlic and toss for a few seconds, do not let it brown.
2. Add the onions and saute on high flame till brown .
3. Add the peppers and saute on high flame till roasted brown and almost cooked.
4. Reduce the flame, add the sugar and balsamic vinegar to caramelize all the juices and give a lovely coating.
5. Add the salt and pepper and turn off the gas. Toss in the paneer.
6. Garnish with chopped basil..Serve warm
