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
  • 5 cup Whole milk
  • 2 1/2 tablespoon Lemon juice
Directions
  1. 1
    Bring the milk to a boil.
  2. 2
    As soon as it begins to bubble, pour in the lemon juice, stir once, and take the pot off the heat.
  3. 3
    Leave it for 15 minutes.
  4. 4
    The milk will curdle and the curds will separate from the whey.
  5. 5
    Strain the curds through three layers of cheesecloth.
  6. 6
    Squeeze out as much whey as you can easily.
  7. 7
    (Do not discard this whey.
  8. 8
    Refrigerate it and use it in cooking instead of water.) Tie up the curds in the cheesecloth, and hang the bundle to drip overnight.
  9. 9
    Next morning, remove the hanging bundle and untie it.
  10. 10
    Gently flatten it out to make a 4-inch patty, keeping the cheese loosely wrapped in the cheesecloth.
  11. 11
    Put the patty on a sturdy plate and
  12. 12
    place a flat, heavy object, such as a heavy pot filled with water, on top of it.
  13. 13
    Leave the weight on the cheese for 4 to 5 hours.
  14. 14
    After the cheese has been pressed, it should be 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick.
  15. 15
    Remove the cheese from the cheesecloth and, with a sharp knife,
  16. 16
    cut into cubes, diamonds, or rectangles.
  17. 17
    The paneer will be quite crumbly until fried.
