Ingredients:

• 
  250g paneer (cut into medium cubes)
  
• 
  3 tbsp thick curd (hung curd preferred)
  
• 
  1 ½ tsp Maharani Masale Kashmiri Chili Powder
  
• 
  ½ tsp Maharani Masale Cumin Powder
  
• 
  1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
  
• 
  ½ tsp turmeric powder
  
• 
  ½ tsp garam masala
  
• 
  1 tsp lemon juice
  
• 
  1 tbsp mustard oil (for that tandoori aroma)
  
• 
  Salt to taste
  
• 
  Capsicum and onion cubes (optional, for skewering)
  

Method:

1. 
   In a bowl, whisk curd, Maharani Masale Kashmiri Chili Powder, cumin powder, turmeric, garam masala, lemon juice, mustard oil, ginger-garlic paste, and salt.
   
2. 
   Add paneer cubes (and veggies if using) and coat them evenly.
   
3. 
   Marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor).
   
4. 
   Heat a grill pan or tawa, brush with oil, and roast the marinated paneer on all sides until lightly charred.
   
5. 
   Alternatively, skewer and grill in an oven at 200°C for 10–12 minutes.
   
6. 
   Sprinkle a dash of Maharani Masale Kashmiri Chili Powder before serving for extra color and aroma.
   

Serve With: Mint chutney and lemon wedges — a royal, fiery delight that’s mild in spice but rich in flavor and color.
