This Indian-inspired butter board is a fun take on the TikTok trend with Amul butter and tandoori-roasted paneer and corn! Topped with fresh veggies and chutneys, this is the ultimate crowd pleaser at your next party! 

Butter boards have been all over my feed the last few weeks so let’s make an Indian version: a Tandoori Butter Board! Mix together some yogurt, spices, mustard oil, and lemon. Add in your corn and diced paneer and toss together. Pan fry until nice and golden brown — this will be the topping for our butter board. Lay down dollops of butter on a sheet of parchment paper. Top with your cooled roasted paneer and corn mixture, onions, peppers, mint-cilantro chutney, garlic chutney, and microgreens. Serve with naan, pav, crostini, bread and crackers and enjoy this lovely tandoori chaat inspired butter board perfect for Diwali!
