Method
-
Coat the paneer in the tikka curry paste, then cover and transfer to the fridge to marinate for at least 30 mins.
-
Meanwhile, heat a frying pan over a high heat. Char the whole spring onions and chilli for 5 mins, turning halfway. Transfer to a blender or food processor along with most of the coriander and mint, reserving a few leaves of each. Add the lemon juice and ½ tbsp oil; blend until smooth. Season lightly. Spoon onto a serving platter and spread to cover the base.
-
Return the frying pan to a high heat with ½ tbsp oil. Fry the paneer for 6 mins, turning regularly, until charred on all sides. Top the spring onion mixture with the yogurt and ripple through, then top with the paneer. Add the chopped tomato and reserved herbs. Serve with the poppadoms for dipping.
