  1. 1

    Store the tortillas in an aluminium wrap or a hot pack to keep them warm.

    If using frozen paneer, soak it in warm water for a few minutes so that it becomes a little soft.

    In a mixing bowl, combine the spices for the paneer marinade. Remove paneer from water, pat dry and cut into 1-inch cubes. Add these to the marinade and mix well to coat all the cubes.
  6. 6
    In a pan, heat 2 tsps of oil. Add the marinated paneer and saute/fry on all sides until palely golden brown.
  7. 7
    Make pico de galla with tomatoes, onions, chillies/jalapenos, lime juice, pepper, salt and coriander. Also chop an onion and green pepper thinly length wise and saute with some salt and sugar until they are caramelized.
  8. 8
    To serve, use fresh coriander and a drizzle of lime juice. To finish it off use some coriander chutney or herbed raita.
