For the second day of mini bites, I again made some with bread slices. Bread and cheese are match made in heaven. It may be any cheese the pairing is so wonderful. Yesterday it was mozzarella and today is our Indian cheese paneer. Paneer combined with some Indian spices and bread makes this a delicious appetizer. Serve it with some spicy sauce and you will win so many hearts.
These bites are so easy to put together. There is no chopping involved. Just mix all the ingredients and shape them and fry. You can make this in just ten minutes if you have all the ingredients in your pantry. I used curd to bind the dough and so the bites have a slight tang which is so nice. You can even use milk to bind. These can also be added to gravies just like we add kola urundai. I am sure it will be best served with rotis.
Ingredients:
Bread Slice – 2
Crumbled Paneer – 1/2 cup
Kasoori Methi – 1 tbs
Pepper to taste
Salt – to taste
Chat Masala – 1 tsp
Curd / Yogurt – 1-2 tbs
Oil – To Deep Fry
Procedure:
Grind the bread slices to fine crumbs.
In a bowl mix together the bread crumbs, crumbled paneer, salt, pepper, chat masala and kasuri methi.
Add curd and knead to a stiff dough.
Take small portions and roll each into a ball.
Deep fry them in oil until golden.
Serve hot with a sauce of your choice.

That is definitely very tempting snack. I’ve made with paneer stuffed in the bread but not mixed them together like the way you have done. Will try this soon.
Wonderful bites..I normally use these as koftas in a rich gravy..good option to serve as a snack.
Wow, i want a super huge plate of this super tempting crispy bites, too good they are.
Very tempting snack, Gayathri. I was wondering what kept it all together without getting disintegrated in oil.
the kasuri methi will give it a great flavor profile for sure
