Printable version here
Ingredients
- 125 gm paneer
- 1 1/2 tbsps soy sauce (mine was dark)
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp water
- 1/2 tsp garlic paste
- 1 green bell pepper medium sized , chopped
- 2 carrots medium , sliced
- 2 tomatoes medium , deseeded and chopped
- 8 green bean (cut into 1/2" pieces)
- 1/4 cup sweet corn frozen
Dressing:
- 1 tbsp vinegar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1/2 tsp oregano dried
- 1/2 tsp basil dried
Instructions
- Mix all the ingredients for the dressing and keep aside.
- Mix the soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, water and garlic paste. Marinate the paneer in this mixture for at least an hour. Place the paneer on a greased tray and bake at 200C for about 12minutes or till the paneer cubes start to brown.
- In the meanwhile, blanch the beans, carrots and sweet corn in salted water. In the same water cook the penne till just done. Drain.
- Put the tofu, blanched vegetables, bell pepper, tomatoes and the penne in a bowl. Add the dressing and season with salt and pepper as required. Mix well so that the dressing coats everything.
- I served this at room temperature. This recipe makes comfortable portions for 3 to 4 people. A very tasty salad and perfect for the summer (and any other time of the year).
