Follow The Directions
01
Step
1 mins
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. (1 minute)
02
Step
0 mins
Add the black peppercorns and coriander seeds to the hot oil. Cook until fragrant, approximately 30 seconds, allowing the spices to release their aromatic oils.
03
Step
5 mins
Introduce the finely chopped onions and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until softened and lightly golden, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
04
Step
6 mins
Stir in the chopped fresh cilantro, pink peppercorns, and red pepper flakes. Continue to cook and stir for 5 to 8 minutes, ensuring the flavors meld together harmoniously. Remove from heat.
05
Step
0 mins
Gently stir the cottage cheese into the fragrant peppercorn mixture. Season with salt and sugar, mixing well to ensure even distribution of flavors.
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of turmeric or garam masala to the spice mixture.
Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your preferred level of spiciness.
If you don't have fresh cilantro, dried cilantro can be substituted, though the flavor will be less vibrant.
Feel free to experiment with other types of cheese, such as paneer or ricotta, for a different twist.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
