- Toast the sesame seeds in a dry frying pan over a medium heat for 1-2 mins, stirring until golden. Transfer to a plate and set aside. Heat half the oil in the pan, then fry the paneer for 2-3 mins, turning occasionally, until golden all over. Add 1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce, fry for 1 min more, then coat the paneer in half the sesame seeds and set aside.
- Wipe out the pan and heat the remaining oil over a medium-high heat. Fry the peppers and carrot ribbons for 5-10 mins until softened, adding the garlic for the last 2 mins. Stir in the remaining sweet chilli sauce and half the coriander, then cook for 1-2 mins more until bubbling.
- Meanwhile, cook the noodles to pack instructions. Drain well; toss with the sweet chilli veg and divide among bowls. Top with the sesame paneer, then scatter with the remaining coriander and sesame seeds to serve.
