Paneer Pakoda

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:
  1. Cut Paneer into bite size cubes or into long rectangular shaped bars. Keep aside
  2. In a bowl, mix all the dry ingredients. Slowly add water and mix it into a thick paste/batter.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Stir it slightly to make sure they are not sticking to each other. Roll the cubes around so that the pakodas are evenly fried. 
  7. Remove the pakodas with strainer ladle and transfer them on paper towel to drain excess oil.
  8. Repeat the steps 5 - 6 for rest of the Paneer cubes.
  9. Optional: sprinkle bit of chat-masala before serving
Serve hot with mint chutney and cup of coffee/tea. Enjoy!!
