Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Soak 8 wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent them burning.
-
Step 2.
In a large bowl, combine 600g paneer chunks, 1 red onion cut into large chunks, 2 different colored peppers deseeded and cut into chunks, 120ml mild olive oil, 1 crushed garlic clove, 1 tsp grated fresh ginger, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp garam masala, ½ tsp chilli powder, 2 tsp ground coriander, 1 tbsp lemon juice, and a handful of chopped fresh coriander. Mix well, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
-
Step 3.
While the paneer marinates, preheat a griddle pan or barbecue to high heat.
-
Step 4.
After marinating, tightly thread the paneer, onion, and peppers onto the soaked skewers. Grill over high heat for 8–10 minutes, turning every few minutes, until the paneer is golden and charred in spots.
