Usually, breadcrumbs are used for binding, and the kababs are fried to perfection on a medium to low flame.

Notes

Take dry paneer to make this dish for the best results. Grated them instead of mashing them for the right texture for the kebabs.
I use freshly made breadcrumbs at home. You may, however, use the store-bought variety, but be generous with the quantity, as it is the only binding agent in the recipe.
Be gentle while shaping and frying the kebabs, as paneer is very soft and tends to break easily.
Put the shaped kebabs in the fridge for 10 minutes to set properly and prevent them from breaking.
Always fry paneer seekh kebabs over a low to medium heat for best results.
