Now this one is a yummy vegetarian snack. Truth is I'm a huge nonveg-eater but for a change i go for something nice from veggie department, eg. these lovely yummy Paneer Tikkas ;)
Ingredients:
500 gm cottage cheese (cut into desired size)
1-2 onions (diced into 1/4 and opened)
1-2 red/yellow/red bell pepper (1" diced)
1 lemon
Marinade:
1 cup whisked curd
1-2 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
1/4 tsp turmeric (optional)
salt, to taste
1/2 tsp red chilli powder
1 tbsp coriander powder
1. Mix all the marinade stuff in a big bowl and add cheese and onion-bell pepper.
2. arrange cheese n veggies on skewer and grill for couple of minutes on all sides.
3. Squeeze a lemon on tikkas and serve hot with either sauce or chutney.
Many times we see fiery-red paneer tikkas at food outlets which look quite lovely and tempting but usage of artificial food colour is quite dangerous for health, specially for kids n pregnant women. So ALWAYS use natural food colours.
One thing more, try to cut cheese into big, 'cube' shape instead of fingers or slices coz they are likely to break while grilling if they are small in size.
lovely !
