Step-by-Step Recipe – How to Make Paneer Wrap
Preparatory Step 1 - Marinate Paneer
In a bowl, mix together curd (yoghurt), salt, pepper, turmeric (haldi), coriander powder (dhania) and lemon juice, then cut paneer into large cubes and place in the bowl of marinade. Leave for approx. 5 minutes. This will soften the paneer before cooking and will allow the paneer to absorb flavours from the marinade.
Why Marinating is Important: It helps keep the paneer moist and improves the flavour of the paneer.
Preparatory Step 2 - Cook the Paneer
Heat a frying pan and add ½ tsp of oil to the pan. Place the marinated paneer cubes in the hot frying pan and cook on low heat for 4-5 minutes. Alternatively, you may choose to grill the paneer instead. Either way, both options will give you the ideal ‘street-style’ wrap.
Tips for Cooking Paneer: Do not fry the paneer on a high heat for a long time as this could make the paneer rubbery.
Preparatory Step 3 - Make Your Wrap
Using a chapatti/tortilla as a base, add a thin layer of chutney /yoğurt / mayonnaise onto the chapatti, then add freshly sliced vegetables such as onions, tomatoes, cabbage, and capsicum. Finally add the cooked paneer cubes and wrap up the ‘wrap’ by rolling it.
Optionally, you may choose to pan-fry the wrap for 1-2 minutes to make it slightly crispy.
