Directions

1. Puree all of the marinade ingredients until smooth, then place in a non-metallic bowl. Add the paneer and vegetables, then allow them to soak up the flavours for at least 30-40 mins or longer in the fridge.
2. Heat the grill to a high setting. Place a roasting tray or some foil below the grill to catch any drips.
3. Thread the vegetables and paneer alternately onto the skewers. Grill for 7 mins, drizzle over the melted butter, turn, then cook for another 2-4 mins or until charred at the edges. Alternatively, cook in an oiled roasting tin in an oven heated to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6 for 8-10 mins, turning halfway through. Sprinkle the skewers liberally with chaat masala and serve with some bread.
