Ingredients

Method

    For the paneer tikkas
    1. Combine the curds, gram flour, ginger paste, garlic paste, chilli powder, kasuri methi, garam masala, coriander, salt and 1 tablespoon of mustard oil and mix well to prepare a marinade.
    2. Add the paneer, onions and capsicum to it and keep aside for 10 to 15 minutes.
    3. Arrange the paneer, onions and capsicum on 4 skewer sticks.
    4. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil on a non-stick tava (griddle) and sauté the paneer tikkas till they are lightly browned on all sides (approx. 4 to 5 minutes). Remove from the skewer and keep aside.

    For the rice
    1. Clean, wash and soak the rice for approx.15 minutes. Drain and keep aside.
    2. Heat the oil in a heavy bottom pan, add the cumin seeds, cloves, bay leaf and cinnamon and stir.
    3. When the cumin seeds crackle, add the rice and salt and sauté for 2 minutes.
    4. Add 3 cups of hot water. Cover and cook over a low flame for 10 to 15 minutes till the rice is cooked. Separate each grain of rice very lightly with a fork and keep aside.

    How to proceed
    1. Heat the oil in a non-stick pan.
    2. Add the paneer tikkas and rice and mix together very lightly. Cook till the rice is hot.
    3. Garnish with the sprig of mint and serve immediately.
