Crispy Paneer and Lentil Power Salad with Spinach and Cucumber
Pan-seared paneer cubes and earthy brown lentils tossed with fresh spinach and crisp cucumbers, finished with a zesty spiced yogurt dressing and a touch of toasted cumin.
INGREDIENTS
125g Part-Skim Paneer, cubed
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Lentils
1/3 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
2 cups Fresh Baby Spinach
1/2 cup Cucumber, sliced
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1/2 teaspoon Cumin seeds
1/4 teaspoon Turmeric powder
Pinch of Sea Salt
PREPARATION
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly spray with avocado oil if needed.
Add the cubed paneer to the skillet and dust with turmeric and a pinch of salt.
Sear the paneer for 2-3 minutes per side until the edges are golden and crispy.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and toasted cumin seeds to create the dressing.
Place the fresh baby spinach and sliced cucumbers in a large mixing bowl.
Add the cooked lentils and the warm crispy paneer to the greens.
Drizzle the spiced yogurt dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately while the paneer is still warm and the greens are crisp.
