Sesame Paneer


by
In this unique Sesame Paneer recipe, soy sauce is used in the batter rather than as a topping or as a marinade. This gives the snack a tongue-tickling flavour, which complements the taste of sesame very well indeed.

Schezuan sauce is a great accompaniment for this exciting snack, so keep some handy for serving.


When serving for a Cocktail Party skewer the Sesame Paneer pieces with a toothpick and serve, it's easier to pick and consume.
