Ingredients

• 1 & 1/2 cup Paneer crumbled
• 1 tbsp Ginger garlic paste
• 3 tbsp Carrot julienne
• 1/4 cup Coriander leaves chopped
• 2 Green chilli finely chopped
• 3/4 tbsp Red chilli powder
• 1 tbsp Garam masala powder
• 1/2 tbsp Roasted cumin seeds powder
• 1/8 tbsp Turmeric powder
• Salt As needed
• 1/2 tbsp Chaat masala
• 1/2 tbsp Lemon juice
• 8 Bread slices
• Butter to smear
• 2 tbsp Oil
• 1/2 tbsp Cumin seeds

Instructions

1. Keep paneer immersed in hot water until soft. Mean while you can prepare the required ingredients. Crumble the paneer once cooled down.
2. In a pan, add oil and splutter cumin seeds in low flame. Add ginger garlic paste and give it a fry.
3. Add green chilli, carrot and capsicum. Fry for a minute to cook it but still retains it crunch.
4. Add turmeric, red chilli powder, garam masala, cumin powder and salt. Mix well.
5. Add crumbled paneer, coriander leaves and mix for 2 minutes.
6. Once mixed well, add chaat masala, lemon juice and switch off the flame. Mix well and transfer to a bowl.
7. Heat a sandwich maker until it is ready (green light goes on) and grease well with butter, both up and down. Spread the prepared paneer in a bread slice and cover it with another slice. Place in the sandwich maker and close it.
8. Once it is golden in colour, take off from the sandwich maker and divide into two to serve. I used griller plates, so I gave a quick double toast for extra crispy sandwiches.
9. Cut into triangles to serve

Tips:

• Cheese Option: You can add a slice of cheese in between the bread for a cheesy twist. This will melt into the paneer filling, making it even more indulgent.
• Add Veggies: You can also add some chopped spinach, peas, or even grated carrots to the paneer mixture for added nutrition.
• Vegan Version: For a vegan version, substitute the paneer with crumbled tofu.
• Spice Adjustments: Adjust the spice levels by adding more or less green chilies, chili powder, or garam masala to suit your taste.

Paneer Bhurji Sandwich is a delicious, filling, and protein-rich snack or meal, perfect for breakfast or lunch. It’s a great way to enjoy paneer in a fun, easy-to-make sandwich form!
