- Crumble your paneer and keep aside. You can grate it too.
- Mix together crumbled paneer with chopped green pepper and spices. Taste and adjust seasoning if required.
- Prepare green chutney using cilantro leaves, mint leaves, garlic, green chillies, salt and lemon juice. Make green chutney like this.
- Keep aside.
- If using butter, melt it or bring it to room temperature so that it is easy to spread. You may also use mayo or cream cheese spread in its place.
- Choose thick bread slices. I have used wholewheat bread here. Multigrain bread, sandwich bread and others work well too.
- Spread butter on one slice and green chutney on the other.
- Carefully place the paneer mixture on top of the slice. Close the sandwich with the other slice.
- Heat a grill. Spray oil if needed. Place your paneer sandwich and grill for 3 minutes till done.
- Heat a skillet. Brush with oil or butter.
- Please the sandwich and toast both sides till crispy. Serve hot.
- Preheat air fryer at 360F or 180C for 4 minutes.
- For air fryer, spread butter or mayo on top and bottom sides of the sandwich bread as well. This helps in golden brown colour while air frying.
- Place paneer sandwich in air fryer.
- Air fry at 360F or 180C for 6-8 minutes till the sandwich is nicely browned. Enjoy your paneer sandwich.
