Achari Paneer Tikka (V)

About This Dish

Achari Paneer Tikka is a vibrant and flavorful vegetarian kebab made from paneer marinated in a pickling spice mix. The paneer is coated in a mixture of **yogurt, mustard seeds, fenugreek, and other Indian spices, which gives it a tangy, aromatic flavor. The grilled skewers are slightly charred on the outside while the paneer remains soft and succulent on the inside. This dish is served with mint chutney or onion salad, and it’s perfect as a starter or side dish.

History & Tradition

Achari Paneer Tikka draws inspiration from Indian pickles (achar), which are sour, tangy, and often packed with spicy flavors. Paneer is marinated in the same pickling spices used in traditional Indian achar. The concept of combining pickling spices with paneer in a grilled format is a modern twist on traditional tandoori dishes, but it stays true to Indian culinary traditions that emphasize spicy, tangy flavors.

What Makes It Special

What makes Achari Paneer Tikka special is the unique blend of pickling spices that infuse the paneer with a tangy, flavorful punch. The grilling process adds a charred finish, making this dish perfect for those who love bold, aromatic flavors. The use of mustard seeds and fenugreek gives the dish its signature tang, while the creamy yogurt marinade ensures that the paneer remains moist and tender.
