Method
- For the paneer: Whisk together the yogurt, garlic, ginger, lemon juice, oil, garam masala, smoked paprika, coriander, cumin, turmeric and cayenne pepper in a large bowl and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Add the paneer and vegetables and carefully stir to coat. Cover and place in the fridge to marinate for 2 hours or overnight. While the paneer marinates, soak 8 bamboo skewers in water.
- For the chutney: Add the yogurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, cilantro, mint, chile, ginger, garlic and sugar in the bowl of a small food processor. Blitz to finely chop. Season with salt. Add a splash of water or more yogurt to reach a saucy consistency. Transfer the chutney to a container and store in the fridge for up to 5 days until ready to use.
- Preheat a grill to medium-high heat or broiler to high with a rack set to the top position. Thread the paneer and vegetables onto the soaked skewers. Lightly oil the grill or a large baking sheet and grill or broil for 10 to 15 minutes, turning every couple of minutes until lightly charred and the vegetables are tender.
- Serve hot with naan, cabbage and drizzled with cilantro mint chutney.
