Marinated paneer, broccoli, peppers and red onion in a fragrant yoghurt marinade roasted in the oven.

Hari says

The classic tandoori marinade is so versatile - in fact, I'm not sure I have found anything it doesn't work with. I do have to make little adjustments to dishes but all in all, it's a fabulous all rounder. Yes, I agree that a tandoori dish works even better if you have a tandoor oven but very few of us have the luxury of cooking in such an amazing apparatus so cooking this dish in the oven or on the barbeque is just perfect.

You can use some other vegetables too such as potatoes, cauliflower, butternut squash but my favourites are broccoli, red onion, paneer and peppers.

  • Ingredients
  • Method
  • 400g paneer, cut into 4 thick slices
  • 4 large broccoli florets
  • 1 red pepper, chopped in chunks
  • 1 green pepper, chopped in chunks
  • 1 red onion, chopped in chunks

Marinade

  • 1 tbsp mustard oil
  • 1 large lemon, juice
  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 5cm piece of ginger, grated
  • 1 green chilli, finely chopped
  • 200g Greek yoghurt
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp garam masala
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds, crushed
  • 1 tbsp kashmiri red chilli powder
  • 1 tbsp dried fenugreek leaves

Garnish

Method

  1. Blend the garlic, ginger, chilli in a pestle and mortar
  2. Place all the blended ingredients into a bowl and pour in the mustard oil and lemon juice.
  3. Add the remaining ingredients into the bowl and mix to create a fragrant thick paste.
  4. Add the paneer and vegetables to the paste and coat all the ingredients. Cover and leave to marinade for at least 30 minutes (the longer the better).
  5. Heat the oven to 180oC.
  6. Transfer to an oven tray and cook for about 10-15 minutes. Alternatively, skewer and cook on the barbeque!
