Paneer is a base of many of our favorite Indian dishes. It is best described as an Indian style of cheese. It is not aged, like most other cheeses and does not melt. It is actually extremely easy to make and it requires very little time and effort.
I was once so intimidated by the process that whenever my husband would request a paneer dish, I would purchase it from the store. I had no idea how simple making paneer was until I decided to give it a try for myself.
You simply boil milk on the stove top, add some lemon (or vinegar), watch it curdle, strain it and then let it sit for a few hours... Then presto! You have yourself a beautiful block of paneer!
I use this paneer for a variety of dishes.
- Butter Paneer
- Chili Paneer
- Paneer Pizza (few varieties in the works)
- Peas (Matar) and Paneer
