This recipe isn’t just tasty – it’s smart eating. Paneer provides high-quality vegetarian protein to keep you full and stabilize blood sugar. Coriander and mint support digestion and natural detox, while ginger adds anti-inflammatory benefits. The addition of roasted peanuts gives it a boost of healthy fats and crunch, keeping you satisfied longer. Bell peppers bring in antioxidants and colour.
What makes this recipe unique? Instead of curd or cream-based marinades, it uses a vibrant, nutty green chutney as the base – making it lighter, dairy-free, and full of texture.
Perfect for lunch, snacks, or party platters – this is clean, flavour-forward eating at its best.
