• Adjust the spice level according to your preference by increasing or decreasing the amount of red chili powder.
• To make the paneer pops healthier, you can also bake them in the oven instead of deep-frying.

Storage and Serving

• Naughty paneer pops are best served hot and fresh.
• If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• Reheat the paneer pops in a preheated oven or air fryer to regain their crispiness before serving.
