Pan Fry Paneer Tikka

                                                                         

As the name suggests this famous mouthwatering starter is fried in pan. As compared to my earlier post Paneer Tikka in OTG this you can make even if you do not have an OTG. Takes little time to prepare and a sure hit if served in evening parties.





Ingredients:

For the Marinade:

250 gm Paneer (cottage cheese)

2 tbsp Hung Curd

2 tbsp Besan

5-6 Garlic cloves

1" Ginger

1/4 Garam masala podwer

1 tsp Red chilli powder

1/4 tsp Black pepper powder

3 Green chillies

1 tsp Salt

6-7 Orange color drops (this gives restaurant type look)





For garnishing:

Lemon

Chat masala





Method:

Cut the paneer into thick long cubes. Make a paste of ginger, garlic and green chilli. Mix together the hung curd, ginger-gralic paste and all the ingredients of marinade. Mix them gently so that the paneer is well coated with the marinated masala. Keep this in fridge for an hour.

Take a deep frying pan, heat oil and fry 3-4 pieces of paneer at a time till they are golden brown on both sides. Place these on a paper towel. Sprinkle chat masala and lemon drops on paneer tikka. Put on toothpicks and serve hot with onion / capsicum rings or with green chutney.
