Ingredients:

●2 litre whole milk
●2 tbsp vinegar

Method:

◆Add milk to a heavy bottom pan on medium heat. Full cream milk gives you a soft and creamier paneer
◆Let the milk come to a boil, stir often so that it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan.
◆Once the milk comes to a boil, turn off the heat and start adding vinegar (or lemon juice), little at a time. Stir it well .
◆After 5 mins, you will notice curdled milk .Drain the curdled milk into a muslin cloth.
◆Bring the ends of muslin cloth together and squeeze as much water as you can.
◆Now flatten the paneer (wrapped inside the muslin cloth) and place it in a air tight container which is square in shape .
◆Press the panner with your hand and give it a square shape . Then place a heavy object on top for it to set. I placed a square baking tin and mortar & pestle. Leave it undisturbed for 15 mins .
◆After 15 mins , deep freeze the paneer for atleast 1 or 2 hours . Make sure you deep freeze it in air tight container which is square in shape .
◆Once the paneer is set, remove it carefully from the muslin cloth and cut into cubes. Enjoy this paneer in any of your favorite recipes.
