This isn't about giving the vegetarians amongst us an alternative to tandoori chicken, this is a dish in its own right. Lovely soft freshly made paneer soaks up the tandoori flavours beautifully and once roasted creates an amazing dish. I will sometimes choose to have this rather than the chicken and for me it's all about the texture. I love the soft, squeeziness just remember not to cook it for too long!To buy the main ingredients for my Tandoori, check out my curry kit here.
