Mexican Skewers Recipe

Recipe By Tarla Dalal

This is, without a doubt, my favourite skewer recipe and im sure it will become yours too, if you try it just once Usually skewers and kebabs require lot of oil for cooking, making them a prohibited food for diabetics. No more crest-fallen faces Here is a modified, healthy recipe with less oil and using nutrient-rich tofu (soya paneer). Tofu is easily available in the market. Those who suffer from diabetes are prone to infections, and require a high dose of immune-boosting nutrients like proteins, vitamin a, c, zinc etc. Ingredients like tofu, capsicum and mushroom provide a sufficient dose of these vital nutrients. Cooked on a non-stick pan with less oil, it is a perfect lip-smacking snack that can be had without worrying about an increasing waist-line or an angry look from the physician during your next health check-up
