Crisp-fried paneer cubes in chaat masala, protein with street swagger. Yogurt-flooded, chutney-streaked and unapologetically messy. Perfect as an evening snack with masala chai nearby.

Saltto taste
Paneer250 g, cubed
Lemon1
Tamarind Paste2 tbsp
Red Onion1, thinly sliced
Chaat Masala1 tsp
Red Chili Powder1/2 tsp
Roasted Cumin1 tsp

Fresh Cilantro2 tbsp, chopped

Instructions

1
Get the base ready — cooked, cooled and ideally at room temperature so the toppings sit proud.
2
Whisk the yogurt smooth with a pinch of sugar and salt — it should pour slowly off the spoon.
3
Arrange the base on the plate and spoon the chutneys across — green for bite, tamarind for sweetness.
4
Flood the plate with yogurt, then season hard — masala from a height falls evenly.
5
Top with the chaat masala, pomegranate seeds and fresh coriander; serve within five minutes, fork optional.

Chef's tip

Don't crowd the pan; steam is the enemy of the browning that builds flavour.
