Ingredients
  • 1 litre (2 pints) of full-cream milk
  • 2 tsp lemon juice

Instructions
  1. Bring the milk to a rolling boil in a metal pan.
  2. Slowly add in the lemon juice with stirring.
  3. Stir for a further minute and remove from the heat.
  4. Strain the mixture through some cheesecloth, muslin, or even an old popsock!
  5. Wash the paneer under cold running water and hang over the tap to drain for 30 minutes.
  6. Either process the paneer in a food processor to make it smooth, or knead for several minutes until the paneer ceases to be crumbly.

Titli’s Tips
Paneer keeps as well as any other cheese. Use in dishes such as Palak Paneer.
