In recent years, the culinary world has embraced the potential of cannabis as an intriguing ingredient. This post presents a delightful cannabis-infused recipe that combines the robust flavors of Indian cuisine with the therapeutic properties of cannabis flower. For those looking to add a twist to their usual cooking, this Paneer Tikka recipe is an excellent starting point.

Ingredients for Cannabis-Infused Paneer Tikka

To create this delicious dish, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 300g paneer, cubed

  • 2 tablespoons cannabis-infused oil (prepared beforehand)

  • 1 cup thick yogurt

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

  • 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste

  • 2 teaspoons garam masala

  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder

  • 1 teaspoon red chili powder

  • Fresh coriander leaves for garnish

  • Salt to taste

  • Bell peppers and onions, cut into squares (optional)

Preparation Steps for Paneer Tikka

This recipe requires some preparation, but the results are well worth it. Follow these steps to create your cannabis-infused Paneer Tikka:

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the thick yogurt, lemon juice, ginger-garlic paste, garam masala, turmeric powder, red chili powder, cannabis-infused oil, and salt. Mix well to form a smooth marinade.

  2. Add the paneer cubes (and optionally, bell peppers and onions) to the marinade. Ensure all pieces are thoroughly coated.

  3. Cover the bowl and let the mixture marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight. This allows the flavors to meld and the cannabis to infuse into the dish.

  4. Preheat your grill or oven to 200°C (about 392°F). If using skewers, thread the marinated paneer and vegetables onto them.

  5. Grill or bake the skewers for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until the paneer is golden and slightly charred.

  6. Once cooked, remove from heat and sprinkle fresh coriander leaves on top for an aromatic finish.

Serve your cannabis-infused Paneer Tikka with a side of mint chutney or over a bed of fresh salad for a complete meal. This innovative dish not only offers a unique flavor profile but also allows for the combination of the wellness properties of cannabis with a beloved Indian classic.
