Recipe By : Anjum Anand
Serving Size : -1 Preparation Time: 1:00
Categories : Indian Food Made Easy

For the marinade
125ml/4 1/2fl oz Greek-style yoghurt
small knob fresh ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
2-3 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped
salt, to taste
1/2 tsp chilli powder, or to taste
1 tsp garam masala
2 Tbsp lemon juice, or to taste
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 Tbsp gram flour (also called chickpea flour)
1 tsp cumin powder
seeds of 6 green cardamom, ground
For the skewers
300g/10 1/2oz paneer, cut into 2.5cm/1in cubes
1 large onion, cut into 2.5cm/1in cubes
1 green and 1 red capsicum pepper, cored -- and cut into 2.5cm/1in cubes
oil, for greasing
6 wooden skewers, soaked for an hour
2 Tbsp butter, melted, for drizzling
chaat masala (a dried spice mixture -- available from Asian grocers), to sprinkle

For the marinade, mix together all the marinade ingredients in a bowl and add the
paneer, onion and peppers. Cover with cling film and allow the paneer and
vegetables to marinate for 30-40 minutes, or longer, in the fridge. Preheat the
oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6 and oil a baking sheet. Thread the vegetables and paneer
alternately onto the skewers. Bake in the oven for seven minutes, drizzle over the
melted butter, turn and cook for another 5-7 minutes or until charred at the
edges. Sprinkle with chaat masala and serve. They are also great served with a
green chutney.

Comments: Paneer is the main vegetarian protein eaten in India and it is a
perfect foil for Indian flavours.
