      Hi Farrukh,
      Just wondering if these could be baked, given that they have paneer in them? If yes, for how long and at what temp?
      Thanks,
      Jenny

        Hello Jenny,
        Apologies for the delayed reply,
        I have never tried baking these Paneer kababs, but you can try baking them in the pre-heated oven at 220 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until brown, crisp and cooked through. Hope this helps.

        Regards,
        Farrukh

        Why do we need to add raisin, it's sweet. Does it reduce some bad effect on us... it's OK to skip right

      I often feel, you are a photographer and all you care about how your subject looks. But you're much more than that. You're an artist. You craft your subject and work towards it.
      Look at those perfectly shaped kebabs - look how beautifully you've made them. Which is why they are just popping from the screen and asking for attention. I love paneer and potato, and I make this quite often 🙂
