Home Made paneer like the branded ones

Hi everybody,
Happy to meet you in this New year 2014...Quite a long time i was busy in other schedules which kept me postponing my writings here.
And this time i would like to share homemade cottage cheese as like the branded ones :)

Ingredients Required :

Milk - 3 lit
Sour curd - 3 tspn

Method :
  • Boil milk in a heavy pan. When it reaches its boiling point , simmer the stove .
  • Add the curd to the milk 
  • Now you can see the milk solids get coagulated and whey water being formed
  • Now switch off the stove and filter them using a muslin cloth 
  • Squeeze them to remove excess water
  • Let them cool for 20 min 
  • Now grind them in a mixie . This makes the cottage cheese / paneer soft
  • Remove from mixie and then knead the paneer to soft textured dough  and press store it in a square container.
 
  • Refrigerate for 20 min before use 

  • Cut to desired shapes and use
  • Its always good to consume paneer on same day or in couple of days
