Nice recipe! The best thing is that it was all pictorial so it's easy to understand. If you have some unique recipes then you can even sell them to others for a fee. For example check http://theworkster.com/services/content/10-indian-recipes/
the preheating should be done in grill mode or in baking mode.. because i have preheat options for both the modes.. pls guide..
@DeepaShri Rajanit has to be done in grill mode
Could we grill it in a microwave in the grill mode? If so is it viable to use the aluminium foil?
@Nimznot sure about microwave grill mode. you cannot use foil

@tanisha surajwaniyou can pan fry them.
How do we get to cut perfect paneer blocks? I have difficulty sometime because they break while cutting
@Anonymousjust use a sharp knife to cut it.
Real taste of tikka is from Mustard Oil. try replacing ghee with mustard oil.
Hi…
Superb receipe.
Will b trying it.
But I dnt have oven.
Can I use griller instead of oven??
Is der nyother option except oven?
@Netrayes u can use
Aarthi, you have to dry roast the besanwith some ajwain before adding to the marinade… And also heat some mustard oil and then cool it and add while marinating paneer/chicken…
Hi Aarti
How are you?
I see your recipes on Facebook in notifications only but not on the actual facebook.
This is a great recipe.
I love it.
Thanks for sharing.
Happy holidays.

Hi Aarthi!
Thanks so much for posting this recipe. I will surely try it. I have tried other recipes but the paneer turned out to be too dry. So I am curious to try your recipe. One question: when you suggest that marinade can be left overnight, should it stay out or in the fridge?
Thanks so much!
Megha
@Durgayes it has to be marinated in fridge
@AarthiThank you! 🙂
