Instructions
take 250 grams thick curd/yogurt or hung curd in a bowl and smoothen the curd.
add 1 tbsp ginger garlic paste or crushed ginger garlic to the curd.
Add all the dry spice powders and black salt to the curd. below you see the following Indian spice powders in clock wise order-
1 to 2 tsp kashmiri red chili powder, 1 tsp coriander powder, 1 tsp cumin powder, ½ tsp garam masala powder, ½ tsp turmeric powder and 1 tsp ajwain/carom seeds. in the center is black salt.
i feel that the redness is less in the marinade hence i added some more kashmiri red chili powder to the marinade. kashmiri red chili powder gives a nice red color to the food and its not hot.
add juice of half lemon, mix and keep the marinade aside.
dice the veggies (1 large red bell pepper, 1 large yellow bell pepper, 1 large green bell pepper/capsicum/shimla mirch and 1 medium size onion).
chop 250 gms paneer/cottage cheese and cube them. I have used homemade paneer
add the veggies and paneer to the marinade.

Once everything is marinated well. Cover and keep the marinated paneer and veggies in the refrigerator for 2 hours or more.
After 2 hours of rest, Arrange them in a skewer
