## Ingredients List
– **250 grams paneer**, cut into cubes
– **1/2 cup all-purpose flour (maida)**
– **1/4 cup rice flour**
– **2 tablespoons corn starch**
– **2 tablespoons yogurt**
– **2 teaspoons ginger-garlic paste**
– **2 teaspoons red chili powder**
– **1 teaspoon turmeric powder**
– **1 teaspoon garam masala**
– **Salt**, to taste
– **Water**, as needed
– **Oil**, for deep frying
– **Curry leaves** (for garnish)
– **Lemon wedges** (for serving)
## Instructions/Steps
1. **Marinate the Paneer**: In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, and salt. Add the cubed paneer to this mixture and coat well. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
2. **Prepare the Coating**: In another mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rice flour, and corn starch. Mix well.
3. **Coat the Paneer**: After marinating, take the paneer cubes out one by one and dip them into the flour mixture, ensuring they’re evenly coated. Shake off any excess flour.
4. **Heat the Oil**: In a deep frying pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, you can begin frying the paneer.
5. **Fry the Paneer**: Carefully slide the coated paneer cubes into the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
6. **Drain and Serve**: Once done, remove the fried paneer from the oil and place them on paper towels to absorb excess oil. Garnish with fresh curry leaves and serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.
