Soft Paneer Tikka

By Jordan Lee ·
Soft paneer tikka at home never needs a clay oven if you treat the marinade right. Thick yogurt, not watery, or it slides off; I hang it in a cloth for ten minutes when it looks thin. Soft paneer cubes hold better than the crumbly kind; freeze 15 minutes if yours is too soft to skewer. Oven or tawa both work: high broiler for char, or a cast-iron tawa when I do not want to heat the oven. Do not overcook or the paneer turns rubbery. Lemon and chaat masala at the end matter more than people admit.
