When it comes to barbeque, the first thing that comes to my mind is either chicken or fish. Most of our friends eat meat but Some of them don’t. For them, I just make something which can be barbequed in the same tandoori way but in vegan style. This is for all my vegan friends.
30, 2" cubes of paneer (cottage cheese)
3 tbsps Tandoori Masala
1 large onions cut into 1" square pieces
5-6 tbsps vegetable/ canola/ sunflower cooking oil
2 tbsps Chaat Masala
Salt to taste
Lemon wedges to garnish
One trip to your nearby Indian grocery store and you will find everything to make this recipe.
Preparation:
Mix 2 and 1/2 tbsps of Tandoori Masala with the yogurt, 2 tbsps cooking oil and salt and make a smooth paste.
Put the paneer chunks in a bowl and pour the above Tandoori paste on to it. Mix gently to coat all the paneer well. Cover and keep in the refrigerator to marinate for two hours.
Mix the remaining 1/2 tbsp of Tandoori Masala with the onion pieces to coat them well.
Thread the marinated paneer and onion pieces onto bamboo skewers in a combination of your choice. (Tip: Soak your bamboo skewers in water ahead of time. This will prevent your tikkas and vegetables to get stuck on the skewers)
Bbq on low to medium flame. Put the paneer skewers on it and brush with a little cooking oil. Grill till paneer is light golden and the onions soft. Do not overcook or the paneer will become rubbery.
