as mentioned earlier, there are myriad ways of preparing this soft and tender paneer cutlet recipe. the main one’s are with and without boiled and mashed vegetables to these cutlets. however in this recipe i have added the vegetables which gives nice texture and consistency to paneer tikki recipe. in other words boiled and mashed vegetables especially potatoes gives strength to cutlets and does not allow to dissolve. in addition, with just grated paneer, you may feel pale in taste where as with vegetables it would be infused with many flavours.

paneer cutlet recipethere aren’t any complicated steps in this recipe, yet i would like to add few tips for a moist and soft paneer cutlet recipe. firstly, i have used homemade paneer with full cream milk, which would yield moist and creamy paneer. but you can use the store bought one with good quality and fresh one. secondly, i have used corn starch as binding agent in this recipe. alternatively you can use bread crumbs, rusk powder, bread slices, crushed oats and even maida / plain flour. lastly, do not fry these in extremely hot oil otherwise the inner layer may not cook properly.
