Many people are tired of low-quality paneer served in fast food. Often, it contains additives and lacks flavor. A healthier solution is to make your own paneer dishes at home. One tasty option is a tamarind-paneer hot dog. This dish features crispy paneer, tangy chutney, creamy relish, and refreshing spices. While making it takes some time, the outcome is worth it. It’s a great choice for family dinners or weekend gatherings. To create this dish, gather the following ingredients: tamarind chutney, cumin seeds, black pepper, ginger, paneer, onion, garlic, green chili, lime, cucumber, yogurt, coriander, oil, and brioche hot dog buns. Start by marinating the paneer. Mix some tamarind chutney, cumin, pepper, and ginger in a small bowl. Brush this mixture on the paneer fingers and let it sit. Next, prepare the onion mixture. Combine sliced onion, garlic, chili, lime zest, and juice. Season with salt and pepper. Then, make the cucumber relish by mixing grated cucumber, its juice, garlic, chili, yogurt, and coriander. Season it to taste. Preheat your grill and heat oil in a pan. Fry the paneer until it’s golden. Toast the brioche buns lightly. To assemble, spread tamarind chutney on the buns. Add the fried paneer, top with cucumber relish, and garnish with the onion mixture. Enjoy this tasty homemade paneer hot dog, a fun twist on a classic favorite.
