Idea Series - Recipes with leftover Paneer

Lots of times, I have a pantry ingredient at hand which I want to use. Maybe the ingredient is nearing its best-before date, or maybe I just want to try it out! Sometimes I order an ingredient after watching some recipe video, and by the time the delivery arrives, I have forgotten about the recipe, and now don't know what to do!

In this Idea series, I am going by ingredients, instead of dishes - and will list some recipes which I can use for the ingredient. Hope this is useful!

Paneer Sandwich

What's not to like in a a grilled paneer sandwich?

Some things that I like to add - thin tomato slices, melon seeds, green chillis

If you want to make it really gourmet, char-grill some red/yellow peppers, chop and add to the sandwich.

Smashed Paneer Tacos

This was a trending dish this year, and I found it handy to make when the fridge has some leftover dough and paneer. Lots of recipe videos online. This is a good one:

One variation that I was thinking of, keeping daughter's palate in mind is that onions and peppers can be sautéed in a little oil before adding to the taco.
