paneer tikka
Spiced Indian cheese
Paneer tikka is an Indian dish of cubed paneer cheese marinated in spiced yogurt and grilled or roasted, often in a tandoor oven.
The cheese develops a slightly charred exterior while remaining soft inside.
It's served as an appetizer or side dish, typically with mint chutney: We ordered paneer tikka as a starter.
