Baked Paneer

Paneer is one thing that my husband absolutely loves. Most recipes ( Indian cuisine) that use paneer require the paneer in fried form. I would often not make a dish to avoid the hassle of frying paneer. I came up with a simple alternative, baking.

Ingredients:
Paneer - 400 gms cubed
Oil - 3 Tbl sp
Chili powder - 1tsp
Salt - to taste.

Method:

1. Mix oil, salt and chili powder in a bowl.
2. Lightly coat two opposite sides of the paneer cube.
3. Pre-Heat the oven to 375 degrees
4. Bake for 10 min.
   
5. Flip each cube and bake again for another 5 min.

PS: Do not use cookie sheets or any kind of baking sheets. Directly place the paneer on the baking sheet.
