A pinch of chaat masala
1 tbsp tomato ketchup
1/2 tbsp soya sauce
3 tbsp corn flour
1 packet rice noodles
Desi ghee
Method:*Cut paneer into long (thick) uniform pieces.
*To prepare the coating, mix Kashmiri red chilli powder, salt, ginger garlic paste, chat masala and tomato ketchup with soya sauce and corn flour.
*Make a smooth paste of it. Add a little bit of water to for a medium smooth consistency.
*Now coat the paneer pieces with the paste covering every inch of the pieces. For better coating, sprinkle about 2 tbsp of corn flour on the coated paneer pieces to prevent the coating to spread out while frying.
*Let it rest for about 10 minutes.
*Meanwhile, boil some water to prepare the noodles.
*Pour noodles into it the pan. Let it cook for 2 minutes and then strain the water. Pour ice cubes/cold water over it to prevent over-cooking.
*Now carefully roll the paneer with noodles.
*Take one piece of paneer and few noodle strands and roll the strands over the paneer piece in a uniform way. Repeat the process for all the paneer pieces.
*Now take a wok and heat desi ghee in it over high flame. Make sure it is flaming hot before cooking the paneer pieces as the noodles might absorb more ghee than expected.
*Once the wok is sufficiently hot, place the paneer pieces one by one and fry till they turn golden brown. Serve hot.
