List of Ingredients for tempering
1 tbsp melted butter (for brushing over pastry shells before baking), sesame seeds for sprinkling
List of Ingredients for Garnish
Small heart-shaped pan-seared paneer pieces, a thin ring of red bell pepper, fresh mint leaves, and a fine drizzle of tomato ketchup
Instructions
