Preparation
- In a bowl, mix yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, turmeric powder, red chili powder, garam masala, cumin powder, salt, and lemon juice.
- Add paneer cubes, capsicum, and onion to the marinade. Mix gently and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.

- Place the paneer tikka filling on one slice.
- Add a cheese slice (optional) and cover with another bread slice.
- Toast the sandwich on a tawa, grill, or sandwich maker until golden brown and crispy. Use butter or olive oil sparingly, if desired.
Notes

- Ensure the paneer and vegetables are not overcooked to retain their texture.
