Paneer Tikka Open Toast - Air fryer Sandwich — Paneer Tikka Open Toast – Air fryer Sandwich

This paneer sandwich recipe would be an excellent party appetizer. It stays crisp long after it has reached room temperature because of the way it is cooked. . Although this open sandwich is commonly found at stalls as street food is very famous, the bread slices used to be soft.

I cooked the slices until firm before adding the topping and grilling them until golden. The crispiness of this air-fried snack lasted a long time. I sprayed a little oil on the topping, but you can use less if you like.

Ingredients

200 gm – Paneer cubes
4 – Bread slices
1 medium – onion (diced)

Important Suggestions To Keep In Mind

You can bake them also at 400 degrees F for 5 to 8 minutes. Just check-in between when the cheese has been melted and the paneer is little golden brown.
You can make them on the stovetop as well just brush the pan with little oil heat it on medium flame and then place the sandwich on the surface of the pan. Now keep the flame on the lowest heat and cover it. Open after 5 to 6 minutes till the cheese melts and the bread is crisp and done. Take out.
But it will be best to air fry or bake it as then the paneer and veggies will be crisp too.
