• 150 g soft malai paneer (cottage cheese)

• ½ tsp chaat masala

• ½ tsp Madras curry powder

• ¼ tsp hot chili powder

• Wash, then using a knife or mandolin slice the cucumber, lengthwise approximately 1/8 inch of thickness.

• Roll the cucumbers slices like sushi rolls, leaving the middle hollow. Use skewers to hold the cucumber rolls in place.

• Whisk and blend the paneer mixture until it’s a smooth paste (like soft cream cheese).
