add the paneer, onion and peppers. Cover with cling film and allow the
paneer and vegetables to marinate for 30-40 minutes, or longer, in the
fridge.
2. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6 and oil a baking sheet.
3. Thread the vegetables and paneer alternately onto the skewers. Bake in
the oven for seven minutes, drizzle over the melted butter, turn and cook
for another 5-7 minutes or until charred at the edges.

green chutney.
Comments: Paneer is the main vegetarian protein eaten in India and it is a
perfect foil for Indian flavours.
