Paneer Tikka Masala




Ingredients


250g cubes paneer
1 onion
1 capsicum
200ml tomato puree
1 tsp red chilli powder
1 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp coriander powder
1/2 tsp garam masala powder
100ml thick yogurt
1 tsp fenugreek powder
dry fenugreek leaves
cardamom
cumin seeds
shaved ginger
20ml garlic paste
1 bowl corn


Directions


1. Take a glass container, and mix the cubed paneers with half a tea spoon of
red chilli powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, garam masala powder,
fenugreek powder, and 50g yogurt.
2. Let the mix marinade for at least an hour.
3. Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F), and place the marinated paneer cubes, with
onion, capsicum, and tomato on the skewers. Let them grill in the oven using
skewer support, by continuously flipping them every 5 minutes until the
outer crust looks crispy enough.
4. Start heating some oil in a pan to add some cardamom and cumin seeds. Let it
heat until the flavour is transfused for about a minute or two.
5. Now add chopped onions and tomatoes to the sautee. Add some shaved ginger and
garlic paste and let it sauté until some raw flavour disappears.
6. Add the tomato purée, dry fenugreek leaves, and let it cook for about 15
minutes.
7. As the spice and tomato purée looks cooked, add some water to the mixture and
let it cook more.
8. Now add the grilled paneer, some chopped vegetables of choice, corn and stir
the mixture well.
9. One the added water seems to be evaporated, and the mixture looks a little
thicker, turn off the heat and garnish with lemon juice, fresh coriander. (It
can be served with bread of any preference.)
