Paneer Tikka Masala

May 29th 2008 11:09
Paneer Tikka Masala
Paneer cheese is widely used in traditional Indian cooking. It is completely vegetarian and there is no rennet used in its making. Paneer itself is bland, however once grilled or fried and allowed to soak up curry, it is absolutely divine. This is a must-have dish whenever I am having guests over.


Ingredients:
250g Paneer, halved

Marinade:
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tsp. grated ginger
2 green chilli, chopped
3 tbsp. chopped coriander
¼ tsp. turmeric powder
1 tsp. chili powder
5 tsp. lemon juice
3-4 tbsp. thick yogurt
Salt to taste

Salad:
Lettuce leaves, chopped
10 cherry tomatoes, halved
2 medium carrots, sliced into long strips
1 large red onion, sliced into rings
1 lime, halved
Chopped coriander for garnishing

Paneer Tikka Masala
Method:
1. Mix together all the ingredients for the marinade in a large bowl. Add the paneer halves to the bowl and make sure it is coated well with the marinade. Cover and leave to marinate for at least an hour. This can also be prepared the night before.

2. Heat grill on high for about 10 mins. Remove paneer from marinade and cook on high for about 5-7 mins on each side. You will see that the paneer starts to brown at the sides.
3. Meanwhile, prepare the salad and arrange on a large plate in the following order: lettuce, carrots, tomatoes, onion rings.
4. Remove paneer from the grill and allow to cool.
5. Once cool, slice cooked paneer into cubes and arrange on top of salad.
6. Heat the remaining marinade in a small pan over a very low flame to make a sauce. Stir the marinade gently until it starts to thicken. Do not stop stirring at this will cause it to curdle.
7. Garnish with chopped coriander and freshly squeezed lime.
8. Serve the paneer with the yoghurt sauce with your choice of Indian bread or rice.
