Have you tried paneer in a salad? Healthy and tasty, this marinated paneer salad is a different way to serve paneer but just as tasty. It makes a delicious healthy midweek meal.
Put all the ingredients for the marinade into a food processor. Blitz. Add extra olive oil if it is too stiff.
Coat the paneer in the marinade and refrigerate for a few hours.
Heat a tiny bit of oil in a frying pan and fry the paneer, letting it brown slightly then turning it over. I cooked it on about 3 sides.
While the paneer is cooking, mix the cucumber and the remains of the marinade into the yogurt to make a raita. It is best to remove the seeds from the cucumber first so they don't make the raita too watery.
Serve the paneer on top of the rocket leaves, with a sprinking of pomegranate seeds and with the yogurt and cucumber raita on the side.
