Method

    Steps to make Hariyali Paneer Tikka

    • Prepare the marinate by blending 1 cup pudina or mint, 2 cups coriander, 5 green chillies, 1 inch ginger, 1/4 cup boondhi, 1 tablespoon chaat masala and salt per taste
    • Mix it in a mixer jar, adding a little bit of water
    • In the same mixer jar, separate half a cup of marinate and add half a cup of curds
    • Separate the marinate into two bowls, 1 with half a cup of curds and 1 plain
    • Mix 1/2 cup of the plain marinate
    • I have used Paneer I got from a website called Terrace Treats, wash and pat dry it
    • Next cut the paneer according to the size you prefer, I cut it further in half later on
    • Marinate the paneer for 1.5 hours in a fridge
    • Meanwhile, cut half of red, yellow and green capsicum
    • Marinate them in a bowl Cut 2 onion into petals
    • Marinate them in two separate bowls
    • If you age baking it, preheat your oven to 180C for 20 minutes
    • If you are doing it in a pan, skip to the next step
    • I have used a slotted tray, I’ve spaced the marinated paneer and veggies
    • I baked it for 15-18 minutes, the colour came out amazingly.
    • If you’re doing it on a pan, you need to skewer it in such a way, that you can turn it to the other side
    • You need to take it out, when the paneer just starts to brown, about 15 minutes
    • Before serving it add juice of lemon and some more green chutney
    • Serve with the remainder green chutney. This recipe served for 4 of us
