how to make the marinade
  1. In a deep bowl, add ¼ cup besan (bengal gram flour). Besan (gram flour) plays a crucial role in making Paneer Amritsari Pakoda. It acts as the primary binding agent, holding the paneer cubes together and forming the crispy outer crust of the tikka.
  2. Add 2 tbsp rice flour (chawal ka atta). Rice flour has a fine texture that helps create a thin, crispy outer layer when deep-fried. This is because it absorbs less oil compared to other flours, resulting in a lighter and crunchier tikka.
  3. Add 1 tbsp ginger-garlic (adrak-lehsun) paste. Ginger and garlic are both known for their pungent, aromatic flavors. When combined in a paste, they add a depth and complexity to the pakora batter that complements the neutral taste of paneer.
