Paneer

I don't remember when I last used ready paneer from the supermarkets,because the paneer made at home is far more soft and simply melts in the mouth,it takes very little time to make paneer at home ,actually I always make my paneer and put it under weight just before i start preparing for the gravy.By the time i get my gravy ingredients ready my paneer is ready to be cut into pieces!

Serves 4 people
