Wednesday, November 21, 2018
Ingredients:
- 14 oz - Paneer bar
- 1/3 cup - corn flour
- 1/4 cup - rice flour
- 2 tbsp - Chickpea Flour /Besan (optional - will have thick coat)
- 1 tsp - Kasoori Methi
- 1/2 tsp - Garam Masala
- 1/2 tsp - red chilli powder (or to taste)
- 1/4 tsp - jeera (cumin) or ajwain (carom/caraway) seeds - Optional
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- Pinch of Baking Soda (optional)
- Oil for frying
Method:
- Cut Paneer into bite size cubes or into long rectangular shaped bars. Keep aside
- In a bowl, mix all the dry ingredients. Slowly add water and mix it into a thick paste/batter.
- Add Paneer cubes to the prepared batter. If you have time, let it to marinate and soak up the flavor for about 10 to 15 minutes. But, this is optional.
- Heat the oil in a deep frying pan (medium-high). To check if the oil is ready for frying, drop a small amount of batter, it should come up bubbling and float.
- Now (carefully) drop each Paneer cube into hot oil making sure it is evenly coated with batter. Repeat with few more Paneer cubes - depends on the size of your frying pan.
- Stir it slightly to make sure they are not sticking to each other. Roll the cubes around so that the pakodas are evenly fried.
- Remove the pakodas with strainer ladle and transfer them on paper towel to drain excess oil.
- Repeat the steps 5 - 6 for rest of the Paneer cubes.
- Optional: sprinkle bit of chat-masala before serving
