For the achaari marinade
Combine all the ingredients, except the curds in a mixer and blend to a coarse mixture. Transfer the mixture into a deep bowl, add the curds and mix well.

Add the paneer to the prepared achaari marinade, mix gently and keep aside to marinate for 20 minutes. Arrange the marinated paneer cubes equally on satay sticks and keep aside.
Heat a non-stick tava (griddle), grease it with little oil, place a few satays on it and cook on a medium flame, using a little oil, till they turn golden brown in colour from all the sides. Repeat step 3 to cook more satays. Serve immediately with dahiwali phudina chutney.
