Description
This Indian beverage features Whole milk, Lemon juice. It delivers bright, zesty notes. A reliable recipe that works well for everyday cooking. Simple to make with ingredients you likely already have on hand, this is a recipe you will come back to again and again.Ingredients
Directions
-
Bring the milk to a boil.
-
As soon as it begins to bubble, pour in the lemon juice, stir once, and take the pot off the heat.
-
Leave it for 15 minutes.
-
The milk will curdle and the curds will separate from the whey.
-
Strain the curds through three layers of cheesecloth.
-
Squeeze out as much whey as you can easily.
-
(Do not discard this whey.
-
Refrigerate it and use it in cooking instead of water.) Tie up the curds in the cheesecloth, and hang the bundle to drip overnight.
-
Next morning, remove the hanging bundle and untie it.
-
Gently flatten it out to make a 4-inch patty, keeping the cheese loosely wrapped in the cheesecloth.
-
Put the patty on a sturdy plate and
-
place a flat, heavy object, such as a heavy pot filled with water, on top of it.
-
Leave the weight on the cheese for 4 to 5 hours.
-
After the cheese has been pressed, it should be 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick.
-
Remove the cheese from the cheesecloth and, with a sharp knife,
-
cut into cubes, diamonds, or rectangles.
-
The paneer will be quite crumbly until fried.
