तंदूरी पनीर टिक्का की रेसिपी - हिन्दी में पढ़ें (Tandoori Paneer Tikka in Hindi)

A party without tandoori party starters is truly incomplete!

And of all such starters, the Tandoori Paneer Tikka is especially popular. The perfect blend of spices and smoky flavour of the marinated and tandoor-cooked paneer is just too awesome to describe.

Here is how you can impress your guests by making this all-time favourite party starter at home – and that too quite quickly and easily using a simple non-stick tava.

Make sure you let the paneer marinate for at least half an hour as it is important for the flavours to sink in. We have used a little besan in the marinade so that it coats the paneer well.

Your guests will enjoy the authentic flavour of this paneer tikka thoroughly, so be ready to take a bow!

Try your hand at making other nice starters like the Vegetable Satay or Tandoori Gobi.

Two questions ma''am. 1. Normally it requires hung curd. But this recipe is with normal curd. 2. Can I use ready made barbeque masala instead of masala suggested by you.

Tarla Dalal    Hi Jmd : If you wish to use thick curd then you can follow this recipe. You can use ready made barbeque masala. https://www.tarladalal.com/Paneer-Tikka-How-To-Make-Paneer-Tikka-Recipe-2908r

Tarla Dalal    Hi, You can grill till black spots appear on all the sides, while rotating it in between. This might take 3 to 4 minutes to cook.
