Instructions to make Paneer Tikka Sandwiches with Tandoori Mayonnaise:
- Finely chop bell pepper, tomatoes, onions, green chilies and coriander leaves. - - Cut paneer into small cubes. Add the marinade ingredients – tandoori powder, chilli powder, oil and salt. Mix well and marinate for about 15 minutes.
- TO MAKE THE TANDOORI MAYONNAISE: - - In a small mixing bowl, mix mayonnaise, chaat masala powder, red chilli powder, tandoori masala powder and tomato ketchup to combine thoroughly. Adjust seasonings according to personal taste. Set aside.
- TO MAKE THE CILANTRO CHUTNEY: - - Make a fine paste of a handful of cilantro leaves, mint leaves, green chilies, cloves of garlic, cumin seeds and salt to taste. - - Transfer to a bowl, squeeze in a splash of lemon or lime juice (about one to two teaspoons) and mix well. Set aside.
- TO MAKE THE PANEER TIKKAS: - - Heat a non-stick pan with about butter. Once it melts, add the marinated paneer cubes and saute on medium high heat for a few minutes, stirring often until grilled and toasted. - - Remove and set aside.
- TO MAKE THE SANDWICH FILLING: - - In a large mixing bowl, add the vegetables along with paneer tikka pieces and cilantro. - - Add prepared tandoori mayonnaise and give it a good mix. Do a taste test and add more mayo if needed.
- TO MAKE THE TANDOORI PANEER TIKKA SANDWICHES: - - Heat a large griddle on medium high heat. - - While the pan is heating, place 2 slices of bread side by side. Smear some cilantro chutney on one slice. Top with required amount of filling, spreading to cover the slice.
- Place the second slice on the filling. Press gently and butter the top bread slice.. - - Transfer to the heated griddle (buttered side down) and toast or grill, pressing slightly with a flat spatula or sandwich press. You can even use a sandwich maker instead.
- When the bottom of the sandwich turns slightly golden brown and crisp, butter the top slice of the sandwich and turn over to grill. Press gently again. - - Once both the sides are toasted and grilled to perfection (with a bit of crispiness and colour), remove from heat onto serving plate.
- Cut each sandwich into 2 or 4 triangles with a super sharp knife. - - Serve immediately with more tandoori mayonnaise and green chutney on the side.
- Make as many sandwiches as you like (this makes 5 sandwiches) and enjoy these crispy, buttery, lip-smacking Paneer Tikka Sandwiches with Tandoori Mayonnaise along with a cup of chai/coffee or even fresh juice!
- Notes - - I have used whole grain bread here. You can use any favorite bread of your choice. - - Adjust the amount of spices and ingredients according to your preference. - - If you like cheese, you can stir in about ¼ cup of cheese (any processed cheese) into the filling mixture. - - If you cannot find tandoori masala powder, you can spice up the mayo with red chilli powder, chaat masala powder, roasted cumin powder and any garam masala powder you have.
- For a quicker version, instead of grilling the paneer, just stir fresh paneer cubes into the mixture. - - For chicken lovers, use chicken cubes instead of paneer. - - Stir in grated carrots, cabbage etc. in the filling and if you do not like paneer, just omit it to make a simple vegetable sandwich.
- Enjoy!!!
