Spiced air fryer paneer

These spiced air fryer paneer cubes are similar to Paneer Tikka, a popular appetizer in North India. If you want Paneer Tikka, just add some red pepper and onion pieces to the marinade and thread the skewers alternating the veggie and paneer pieces.  Serve with coriander & mint chutney and naan bread.
