- ● Boil the milk in a pan. ● When it's boiling add lemon juice or vinegar or citric acid which ever you are using, while stirring.
- ● If citric acid is being used, dissolve it in 2-tbsp water before adding. ● When milk curdles full turn off the gas and keep aside for 5 minutes. ● Pour it on to a cotton/muslin cloth and tie it with a tight knot.
- ● When all the water is drained from the paneer shape it into a rectangular block. ● Now place the cloth under heavy weight for 2-3 hours before using it. ● Note: Do not throw away the leftover water as it can be used for kneading chapati or paratha dough
