Paneer vegetable kebabs

Paneer vegetable kebab  is very tasty snack or appetizer which is perfect as evening snacks, as starter and perfect for parties and get togethers. Kebabs are popular Middle Eastern food made by meat, vegetables which are skewered with chunks meat or veggies grilled over an open flames. Today I am sharing kebab recipe by adding paneer and veggies like carrot, beans, sweet corn and potatoes. Instead deep frying I pan fried it like tikki's as I used boiled veggies. They tasted crispy from outside and smooth from inside. You can deep fry or shallow fry these kebabs as per your choice. We can have these kebabs with green chutney, ketchups of your choice.

Event : Shhhhh Secretly cooking challenge

Taking this tasty and healthy paneer vegetable kebabs to "Shhhhh Secretly cooking challenge" fb group started by Priya, and taken further till date by Mayuri di, I bookmarked her baked apple to try soon. Do check her space for wonderful recipes. We completed recipes from all states from A to Z, so now admin team and members decided a new interesting way for monthly theme that is - one group member in alphabetical order will suggest theme. Later admin team will pair interested members, then we share 2 secret ingredients among us and prepare recipe using it and all other members will guess it.

Masala maramaralu || karam borugulu || spicy puffed rice

 Masala maramaralu || karam borugulu || spicy puffed rice is very popular snack in Andhra and in many places of India and called with different names like masala murmura in Hindi, masala mandakki in Kannada and masala pori in Tamil. It is very easy to prepare with easily available ingredients. It is perfect tea time snack and popular snack for journey's and picnics. We can also add some onions, grated carrot, cucumber and lemon in masala puffed rice while serving, which is also called churumuri in Kannada, Jhal muri in Hindi. I am big fan of Jhal muri which we get in trains mainly while travelling North side. As they use mustard oil in it, that flavors makes you feel hungry while travelling, will share that recipe soon 😊. I loved my friend Kalyani's  microwaved masala peanuts which is also perfect snack for journey's and picnics.

2) Now heat 3 tsp of oil and then fry groundnuts till it changes color and then take it into cup.

3) Now add  crushed garlic (if you want to use) fry till it changes color then add mustard seeds. When it starts crackling add cumin seeds and fry till you get nice aroma.

4) Later add green chillies, red chillies, curry leaves and fry it well.

Tips

** Fry green chillies well so that they do not taste spicy while eating and also increase its shell life.

** Adding garlic is optional but it gives nice aroma and taste.

** If you want you can also add sev/omapodi, fried corn flakes, fried dalmooth, my uncle also loves to add some masala peanuts in it. 

** As we already added green and red chillies, add red chilli powder accordingly.

** Let the mixture cool to room temperature and then store it in air tight container so that puffed rice stay crispy for long time.

** Do not over fry puffed rice, as they become more crispy and thick.

** In order to keep this mixture crispy for long time frying puffed rice is important.
