Recipe Notes
Additional Tips
- For extra smokiness and authentic tandoori flavor, place a small bowl with a hot charcoal piece in the baking tray and drizzle a little ghee over it before covering the tray tightly for 5 minutes after baking.
- If you prefer a vegan version, substitute paneer with firm tofu and use vegan yogurt for marination; add a pinch of black salt to mimic the tanginess of dairy-based ingredients.
- Chop the fruits (such as pomegranate seeds or finely diced apples) very finely so they blend seamlessly into the stuffing, creating bursts of sweetness without overpowering the savory elements.
- To prevent the potatoes from falling apart, parboil them just until fork-tender but not fully cooked, making them easier to hollow out and stuff without breaking.

I used to make something like this but it was tedious to make. I find the cutting of potatoes makes it easy to fill the mixture. Great recipe.
