For the Skewers-

Onions            2 medium sized cut into roughly the same size cubes as the paneer
Mushrooms    about 10 large ones cut into halves
Bell Peppers   1 red, 1 green ,also cut into same size cubes as the paneer

Mix the yogurt with all the spice powders and salt to taste. Add the cut paneer, onions, mushrooms and bell pepper to this and cover and refrigerate for about two hours at least.
