Homemade Paneer Recipe
Ingredients & Preparation:
Milk: Pour milk into a pan and place it on heat.
Lemon Juice: Add freshly squeezed lemon juice into the warm milk.
Curdling & Straining:
Stir the milk gently using a spatula until it curdles completely.
Pour the curdled mixture through a fine mesh strainer to separate the paneer curds from the whey.
Wash the strained paneer thoroughly with clean water.
Pressing & Shaping:
Transfer the washed paneer into a clean cloth.
Gather the corners of the cloth and twist or squeeze it to drain out the excess water.
Flatten and shape the wrapped paneer into a compact form.
Place a heavy object (like a mortar) on top of the wrapped paneer to press and set it firmly.
Final Result:
Once set, unwrap the paneer and cut it into neat cubes, ready to be used or served.
