Tikka-spiced Paneer Salad with Chickpeas, Mint and Naan Croutons

Introduction

Naan croutons might be the best crouton ever invented (I would happily eat a trayful) and they work beautifully here in this Indian inspired take on an Italian panzanella salad.

You can find good shop-bought paneer in the cheese section of the supermarket, it roasts beautifully with the spices.
