Paneer and red pepper skewers
Item 1 of 1
As a vegetarian barbecue option, these paneer and red pepper skewers from Alfred Prasad are a great option, as the vegetables and paneer are marinated in a delicious spiced yogurt mix. These are perfect for making ahead, as the longer you leave the marinade, the more intense the flavours will be.
