  • 1 tsp dry mango powder aka Amchoor Powder
  • 1 tsp cumin powder
  • 1 tbsp ghee sub for olive oil

  • 2 tbsp Mint Chutney to serve

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF or as per your puff pastry packaged instructions
  • Roll a thawed puff pastry sheet and cut into 1 inch squares. If you have a mini muffin tray then make 1/2 inch squares
  • Place these squares on muffin tray and press in, they will form these cup shapes with space for filling in it
  • Cut Paneer into small cubes and marinate with the spices, ghee and yogurt. Mix well to ensure each piece is coated well. Note: You can marinate the paneer ahead of time as well so tha flavor infuses well
  • Spoon the paneer cubes inside the puff pastry cups till full. Optionally you can brush some more ghee or oil on top of each cup
  • Bake these cups as per puff pastry packaged instructions, I generally do it at 400℉ for 25-30 minutes. keep an eye out so that paneer does not get burnt
  • Sprinkle Chaat masala and some Mint chutney or yogurt mixed with pudina(dried mint). Enjoy!
