Paneer Tomato Salad

This recipe has been in my archives for a long time now, simply because its really not much of a recipe - just a concoction of different ingredients that I like. I took a picture and saved it since it was just too colourful to pass without doing atleast that.

Now I see a great opportunity to post it because this is for a cause. O Food For Ovarian Cancer Awareness. Its a competition that spreads awareness about Ovarian Cancer and features all ingredients that either starts or ends with O. The one I am featuring here is Tomato. For more details, please click here.


What I Used:

Ripe red tomatoes - 2
Paneer/Indian cottage cheese - 1/2 cup, cubed
Capsicum/green bell pepper - 1/2 cup, cubed
Black pepper powder - 1 tsp
Chaat masala - 1/2 tsp
Lime juice/vinegar - 1 tbsp or more
Salt - to taste
How I Made It:

1. Mix the chaat masala, pepper, salt and lime juice/vinegar well together.

2. Mix the tomatoes, bell pepper and panner together, adding a bit of salt. Mash some of the tomato pieces so there is some mush and juices for the paneer to soak in.

3. Pour the lime dressing over it before serving. Can also be served as a wrap in chapati or pita bread.
