MUSTARD OIL | सरसों का तेल 1 TSP
CASHEW PASTE | काजू की पेस्ट OF 15 CASHEWS
FRESH CREAM | फ्रेश क्रीम 2 TBSP
GINGER GARLIC & GREEN CHILLI PASTE
GARLIC | लेहसुन 6 CLOVES
GINGER | अदरक 1/2 INCH
GREEN CHILLI | हरी मिर्च 2 NOS.
POWDERED SPICES
CORIANDER POWDER | धनिया पाउडर 1 TSP
CUMIN POWDER | जीरा पाउडर 1/2 TSP
CHAAT MASALA | चाट मसाला 1/2 TSP
BLACK SALT | काला नमक 1/4 TSP
WHITE PEPPER POWDER | सफेद मिर्च पाउडर 1/4 TSP
ROASTED KASURI METHI POWDER | भुनी हुई कसूरी मेथी का पाउडर 1/4 TSP
GARAM MASALA | गरम मसाला 1/4 TSP
SALT | नमक TO TASTE
LIVE CHARCOAL | कोयला
GHEE | घी
PANEER | पनीर 500 GRAMS
CAPSICUM | शिमला मिर्च AS REQUIRED (DICED)
ONION | प्याज़ AS REQUIRED (PETALS)
Method:
To make hung curd add the curd into a muslin cloth & squeeze out all the excess moisture, then place it in a sieve & place a small weight on it & let it rest for 25-30 minutes.
Further transfer the hung curd into a large plate & add mustard oil, cashew paste, fresh cream, ginger garlic & green chilli paste, all the powdered spices, salt & mix the marinade using your hand, make sure there are no lumps.
You can also give the marinade a smoky flavour by using live charcoal & ghee, this step is completely optional, place a piece of live charcoal in a small bowl & place it on the marinade, then pour a spoonful of ghee & cover the bowl using a lid & let it smoke for 3-4 minutes then take off the lid.
Cut the paneer into tikkas & also prep the capsicum & onion similarly.
To replicate the tandoor texture, I prefer to cook paneer tikka over direct flame using metal skewers.
Insert the onion petal onto the skewer, then coat the cut paneer with the marinade & insert it into the skewer followed by a diced piece of capsicum then alternate the same sequence until there are 4-5 pieces of paneer on the skewer, prep all the skewers similarly.
After skewering, cook them on open flame to get the charred texture, this method will replicate the tandoor.
Once charred, remove the skewer from the flame & serve.
Your delicious afghani paneer tikkas are ready, sprinkle some chaat masala & squeeze a bit of lemon while serving.
To cook these in an airfryer, preheat the air fryer on 200 C for 10-15 minutes, then skewer the paneer & the veggies similarly on a bamboo skewer.
Place a piece of foil in the air fryer & keep the skewered paneer tikkas, air fry for 10-12 minutes then apply butter & again let it cook for a few minutes until charred marks appear.

  3. I really like your recipes and it always turned out well. For afgani chicken u mentioned in separate video to cook in oven for 12-13 mins at 220 C but for Paneer u said cook in over at 220c each side for 10-15 mins. Can u please provide clarity ? Why paneer needs more cooking time than chicken
