Ingredients

225 g paneer

Ingredients for the Marinade

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
2 cloves garlic
10 g fresh coriander (cilantro)
1 lime juiced
1 tablespoon olive oil You may need to add a little more to get a consistency that coats the paneer.

Ingredients for the Salad

50 g rocket leaves (arugula)
⅓ cucumber diced
250 ml yogurt
2 tablespoon pomegranate seeds

Metric - US Customary

Instructions

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.
