Scale
Marination
- 2 tbsp Oil
- 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
- 1/2 tsp Oregano
- 1/4 tsp Chilli Powder
- Salt to taste
Main Ingredient
- 100 grams Paneer, sliced into fingers
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, combine oil, lemon juice, oregano, chili powder, and salt. Mix well to create a uniform marinade.
- Marinate the Paneer: Add the paneer fingers to the marinade and gently mix until all pieces are evenly coated. Let it sit for a few minutes to absorb the flavors.
- Heat the Tawa: Place a tawa (griddle) on medium heat and allow it to heat up properly before adding the paneer.
- Toast the Paneer: Arrange the marinated paneer fingers on the hot tawa and fry them until each side turns golden brown and slightly crispy, taking care to flip them gently for even cooking.
- Serve: Once toasted on all sides, remove the paneer from the tawa and serve immediately as a healthy snack for kids.
Notes
- Use fresh paneer for the best texture and taste.
- You can adjust the chili powder quantity according to your child’s spice tolerance.
- Serve with a side of ketchup or green chutney for added flavor.
- Ensure the tawa is hot enough before adding paneer to avoid sticking.
- For a low-fat version, use minimal oil or a non-stick pan.
