Paneer in any form is liked by my daughter,so when Dhivya wanted something to munch in her holidays and the rain was pouring heavily i made this paneer65.Since it is a fried item you can have it as an evening snack or when planning it for dinner you can have it as a starter as well.An easy to make recipe with a very few steps you can make these in no time and satisfy the demands of your kids.This can be made with cauliflower as well.

INGREDIENTS

Paneer cubes	15-20
Rice flour	1/2 cup
Fennel powder	1/4tsp
Orange food colour	a pinch
Salt	to taste
Red chilly powder	1/2 tsp
Curry leaves	a sprig
Curd	1/4 cup

Chaat masala	a pinch
Garam masala powder	1/4 tsp
Oil	to deep fry

HOW TO MAKE

In a bowl add rice flour,salt,garam masala powder,fennel powder,chaat masala powder,red chilly powder,orange food colour and curd.Add water and mix it to a smooth batter.Cut the paneer into cubes and keep them ready.Dip them in batter so as to coat them well.

Heat oil in a kadai and slowly drop in the coated panner cubes on to the hot oil.Take them out when brown.

Fry curry leaves and add to the fried paneer cubes.Mix well and serve hot with tomato ketchup/sauce.

Notes

You can add cauliflower florets in place of paneer cubes,but make sure you dip the florets in turmeric added hot water to remove insects if any.
You can add chopped green chillies on top as a garnish if kids are not eating.
Addition of corn flour to the batter,say a teaspoon will result in extra crispiness.
