3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon grated ginger

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon ground coriander

1 teaspoon garam masala

1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to your spice preference)

1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained

1 (14-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk

1/2 cup vegetable broth

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Salt and black pepper to taste

For the Coconut Rice

1 cup basmati rice

1 (14-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk

1/2 cup water

1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Prep the Tofu: Drain and press the tofu for at least 15 minutes. Cut into 1-inch cubes.

Marinate the Tofu (Optional): For extra flavor, marinate the tofu in a mixture of 1/4 cup plain yogurt, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon garam masala, and a pinch of salt for at least 30 minutes.

Cook the Rice

Rinse rice thoroughly. Combine rice, coconut milk, water, and salt in a medium saucepan.

Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender.

Make the Tikka Masala Sauce:

Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add garlic and ginger and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

Stir in cumin, coriander, garam masala, turmeric, and cayenne pepper, and cook for another 30 seconds.

Add diced tomatoes, coconut milk, and vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer.

Cook the Tofu

If not marinated, toss tofu with a bit of olive oil, garam masala, and salt.

In a separate skillet, heat a bit of oil and cook the tofu until golden brown on all sides.

Assemble the Tikka Masala:

Add the cooked tofu to the simmering sauce.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Let simmer for 5-10 minutes to allow flavors to blend.

Serve: Stir in fresh cilantro. Serve the hot Tofu Tikka Masala over a bed of fluffy coconut rice.

Optional Garnishes

Extra cilantro

Lime wedges

Naan bread

Plain yogurt

Tips

Spiciness: Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper for your preferred heat level.

Paneer Tikka Med Rice: A Flavorful Fusion Delight

When it comes to culinary delights, the melding of distinct traditions often results in dishes that surprise and delight the palate. One such fusion is Paneer Tikka med Rice, a harmonious blend of Indian and Scandinavian influences. This dish combines the rich, smoky flavors of Indian Paneer Tikka with the simple elegance of Scandinavian-style rice. It’s a perfect example of how diverse food cultures can come together to create something truly extraordinary.

The Origins of Paneer Tikka

Paneer Tikka is a beloved North Indian dish known for its robust flavors and satisfying texture. Paneer, a type of Indian cottage cheese, is marinated in a mix of yogurt and spices, then grilled or baked until it develops a slightly charred exterior while remaining tender inside.

The traditional spices used in the marinade include:

Turmeric: for its earthy flavor and vibrant color.

Cumin: adds a warm, nutty flavor.

Coriander: for its citrusy, slightly sweet notes.

Garam Masala: a blend of spices that gives a complex, aromatic kick.

Chili Powder: for a hint of heat.

The paneer is typically threaded onto skewers with bell peppers and onions, which complement the cheese’s creaminess and add a burst of color and crunch.

Scandinavian Twist: Med Rice

In Scandinavian cuisine, simplicity and balance are key. Rice, or “ris,” is often prepared in a straightforward manner that allows the main dish to shine. For this fusion dish, we draw inspiration from traditional Scandinavian rice preparations, emphasizing clean, delicate flavors that provide a perfect canvas for the vibrant Paneer Tikka.

Bringing It All Together

In Paneer Tikka med Ris, these two culinary traditions meet to create a dish that is both comforting and exciting. Here’s how you can bring this fusion delight to life in your kitchen:

Ingredients:

For Paneer Tikka:

300g paneer, cut into cubes

1 cup plain yogurt

1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste

1 teaspoon turmeric powder

1 teaspoon cumin powder

1 teaspoon coriander powder

1 teaspoon garam masala

1 teaspoon chili powder (adjust to taste)

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Salt to taste

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 green bell pepper, cut into chunks

1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks

1 large onion, cut into chunks

For Scandinavian-style Rice:

1 cup basmati rice

2 cups water

1 tablespoon butter

1 teaspoon salt

Fresh dill or parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Paneer Tikka Marinade:

In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, turmeric, cumin, coriander, garam masala, chili powder, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well.

Add the paneer cubes to the marinade and coat them thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.

2. Cook the Rice:

Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Add the butter and salt, then stir in the rice.

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.

Fluff the rice with a fork and keep warm.

3. Grill the Paneer Tikka:

Preheat your grill or oven to high heat (around 200°C/400°F).

Thread the marinated paneer, bell peppers, and onion onto skewers, alternating each piece.

Brush the skewers with vegetable oil and place them on the grill or in the oven.

Grill or bake for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the paneer is golden brown and the vegetables are slightly charred.

4. Assemble the Dish:

Spoon the cooked rice onto a serving platter.

Arrange the Paneer Tikka skewers on top of the rice.

Garnish with fresh dill or parsley, if desired.

Serving Suggestions

Paneer Tikka med Ris is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed in various ways. Serve it as a main course, accompanied by a simple green salad or roasted vegetables for a well-rounded meal. For a touch of indulgence, pair it with a refreshing cucumber raita or a tangy tomato chutney.
