You may have seen ‘paneer’ appear on our menus on a regular basis but what is it? Paneer is the Indian version of set cottage cheese, made by separating  the whey from the milk by the addition of lemon juice to curdle it. When the whey is separated the solids are collected in a muslin cloth and tied and pressed under a heavy weight for a few hours until the solids set. It is widely available in supermarkets.
On its own, paneer can be quite bland but it is widely used in Indian cooking a vegetarian dish and when carefully spiced can be a fabulous alternative to meat
