I hope most of you buy paneer from shops for preparing various paneer dishes. Try making paneer at home which tastes good and fresh.
Things you require:-
Milk - 1 liter
Lemon - 1/2 piece
Pour the milk in a vessel and squeeze the lemon into it. Stir it properly and keep it on the gas stove in low flame. Stir in between.
After sometime you can see the milk start curdling , if its not then add some more lemon juice and stir.
Once the milk curdles completely you can see small lumps of paneer forming and getting separated from the yellowish water. Switch of the flame and pour this mix into a thin cloth and let all the water get drained. Fold the paneer with the cloth and keep it on a plate. On top of that keep some weight and let it rest for 30 minutes. Follow the picture below.
After that remove the paneer from the cloth and cut in cubes or whatever shape as you wish. Now don't spend so much for buying paneer :) Just make it at home and prepare your tasty paneer dishes.
Tips:-
You can also use curd instead of lemon juice. But from my experience lemon works better.
