Method

  1. Heat an air-fryer to 200°C or preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Put all the ingredients (apart from the sauce) for the masala wedges in a bowl with a pinch of salt and toss to coat well. Air-fry for 25 mins, shaking the tray every 5-10 mins until golden and tender, or bake on a lined tray for 25-30 mins, turning halfway
  2. Meanwhile, mix the salad ingredients. Warm and split the pittas and add the yogurt. Divide the aubergine and paneer between them, followed by the salad. Serve with the wedges and ketchup or chilli sauce, if you like.
