Ingredients
- 8 slices Gluten-free bread
- 200 grams Paneer
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 1 small Onion
- 1 small Green chili
- 1 teaspoon Ginger
- 2 small Garlic cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro leaves
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Cut the paneer into small cubes. Finely chop the red bell pepper, onion, green chili, ginger, and garlic cloves.
Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds.
Step 3
Add the chopped ginger, garlic, and green chili, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 4
Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 5
Stir in the bell pepper pieces, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Cook for another 2 minutes until the peppers start to soften.
Step 6
Add the paneer cubes and mix well, ensuring they are coated with the spices. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the paneer is slightly golden.
Step 7
Turn off the heat, mix in the chopped cilantro leaves, and set the filling aside.
Step 8
Butter one side of each slice of gluten-free bread.
Step 9
Spoon the paneer filling evenly onto the unbuttered side of four slices of bread. Sprinkle with black pepper to taste.
Step 10
Top with the remaining slices of bread, buttered side up.
Step 11
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Grill each sandwich for about 2-3 minutes on each side until the bread is golden and crispy.
Step 12
Cut the sandwiches in half and serve warm.
