These crispy paneer chunks will make you crave for more. Perfect as a protein in a salad or as a side to a curry. With a dipping sauce you can even serve this as a light appetizer.

Prefer fries? Cut your paneer in stripes instead!

Instructions

1. Put the flour, egg white and panko bread crumbs in separate bowls. Mix salt, pepper and additional spices into the flour
2. Roll a paneer piece into the flour, aim for a super thin, even layer
3. Roll the paneer pieces into the egg white, go for a thin, even layer
4. Roll the paneer strips into the panko bread crumbs, coat the entire surface
5. Repeat step 2-4 with each cube
6. Heat 1 cm of oil in a pan on medium heat
7. Fry the paneer pieces until golden brown

Learn from my mistakes

• Keep it thin! A thin layer of flour, egg and panko crumbs gives the best crunch
• Paneer pieces should be moist enough for the flour to stick to them but not too wet to make the flour wet.
• Keep an eye on your pan/fryer! Panko bread crumbs fry faster than you think. Lowering the oil temperature makes it easier to control brownness
