Method for making paneer



I make this with the fresh paneer or called as chenna but you can also use frozen one but here it is how you can made chenna:-



? Take a wide mouth vessel and boil milk in this.



? Bring milk to boil then take it off from flame.



? Allow it to get cool down.



? Now remove the cream from the top of milk and heat again.



? Meanwhile if you are using lemon juice or vinegar for curdling the milk then mix it with a cup of water.



? Once milk starts boiling then reduce the heat and start adding way water or lemon juice or vinegar into it.



? You will see that milk will start curdling and water will get separated from it.



? Once you see that milk is completely curdled and water is transparent then remove it from heat.



? Filter the curdled milk (Chenna) in a muslin cloth and pour one glass normal water into it.



? Squeeze out water completely from it by pressing between your hands.



? Hang it for another half an hour to drain out water completely if any left out.
