PANEER TIKKA


Ingredients
2 cups paneer , cut into 50 mm (2") cubes
1/2 cup
 capsicum cut into 50 mm. (2") pieces
1/2 cup onion, cut into 50mm (2") pieces

1/2 cup hung curd
1 tsp ginger paste
1 tsp garlic paste
2 tsp chilli powder
1/2 tsp
 kasuri methi
1/2 tsp garam masala
2 tbsp
 chopped coriander


1 tsp chaat masala
1 tsp tandoori masala
salt to taste


Method
Combine the curds, ginger paste, garlic paste, chilli powder, chaat masala, kasuri methi, garam masala, tandoori masala, coriander, and salt and mix well to prepare a marinade.
Add the paneer and capsicum to it and keep aside for 15 minutes.
Thread the marinated paneer, capsicum, and onion in a combination of your choice.
Cook the tikka on a non-stick pan, turning sides every minute, just for about 4-5 minutes.
Serve hot with raita or mint chutney.




TIP- Do not cook the paneer for more than 5 minutes, coz it will result in rubbery paneer.
U can cook the tikka directly over the stove/burning coal-gives a smoky taste.
