Very informative and descriptive post Radhika. Like the presentation and clicks taken for each step. A perfect Paneer for any recipe. Lovely post.
Absolutely lovely…
This is a nice post.. as I did make an attempt to make paneer from scratch.. for rasgula’s ..
tried vinegar + water option & lemon juice+water option.
Yup .. i would say it was a bit chewy… I have one tip for u I got from Vah re Vah , add ice cubes as soon as whey separates from cheese.. and it stops the process then and thr… I found it effective..
BTW radhika… your site takes quite a lot of time to load.. very surprising
Have a great weekend!!
Thanks for that tip Sandhya. I think that is a great idea to use ice cubes. It will be easier to handle them then. Not sure why it takes long time, I will look into it. Thanks again for letting me know about this problem.
I usually make it with 1% milk. This is great. Looks really good.
I am SO excited to see this! I’ve always wanted to try making my own paneer!
Great post!!
Radhika,
Nice post, I tried making paneer with lemon juice. I need to try with lemon yogurt combo. From fat free milk we can paneer new info i will try.
Thanx for the winner paneer formula.I must give it a shot some time.
Must try the recipe some day…..the preparation of the paneer is like making the Tofu with vinegar.
Thanks for sharing the recipe and the tips.
Angie

Wow! you had me with just the topic of the post
I’ve tried making paneer at home several times but I don’t know what goes wrong and where. Your step by step photograph gives me some idea on how it should really look like. Will give it a try again and if it comes out great will definitely thank you. Then
brilliant….always home-made…is special
Homemade paneer sounds fantastic!
I use fat free milk but never used yogurt. Have to give this a go, for after the lemon I usually give the paneer a wash which usually gets rid of the lemony flavor in it. Thanks!
I too really want to try paneer at home,I prefer with curd, the first time I tried I got crumbly paneer,think I was not patient enough to give time for turning it stiff! Thanks for the *really* informative post RV
I also make paneer at home using lemon juice,vinegar…nothing can beat home made fresh paneer…gr8 post full of so much information.
My mom makes paneer with just yogurt. It comes out soft and just wonderful + she says the quantity is more than when using citrus acid (not surprising that!).. I stay in the US and the yogurt we get here is not acidic enough to cause the fat coagulation unless you get the “desi” yogurt from Indian stores. I find using the yellow lemon juice does not leave much of a flavor in the paneer as long as you add it slowly and stop as soon as curdling begins…
Nice one!
Radhika did I tell you that I’ve fallen in love with you? I tried your recipe for paneer, made a few very minor changes and the paneer came out perfect!
Thanks for the recipe!
Thanks Prerna
My pleasure
Awesome pictures radhika… first one is classic.. step pictures are too good too.
This is just unbelievable Radhika! I love paneer but avoid it for obvious reasons. I had read somewhere that using yogurt to curdle milk helps in making softer paneer. Now that we have tried,tested and successfully made soft paneer with fat free milk, I am definitely gonna try this ASAP. Thanks for sharing this!! And I was delighted to find a recipe for making low fat khoya too.
Thank you very much Great post…thanks for share this..
Will try this method Radhika. I have always had different experience with Paneer as well. I use Lemon+ vinegar which good but not great. Should try lemon + yogurt. I think paneer turns out different for different people using different milk in different countries. Like In India making Paneer with just lemon used to work greatly for me. I guess it differs with the freshness of milk, the type of acidity in the vinegar or yogurt or the citrus, etc. Thanks for the idea will let u knw how this one turns out!

Thanks for this! I’ve only made a soft cheese once, and have only had paneer once — purhased from a local market that specializes in Indian products. I think it was frozen! I appreciate all your experimentation and look forward to trying this
Very informative post Radhika..I make same way too !
Good job Radhika! – you can’t beat fresh paneer – it’s such a simple fresh cheese. I haven’t used it in my baking just yet but plan too. Have you tried using using non-fat milk? you mentioned it but I was curious as to how that turned out. Thanks for sharing your method!
Thanks Bhavani. I have used fat free milk and it did turn out soft. I liked it more than the store bought paneer.
Thanks! I just made this earlier this week for the first time and I LOVE it! I used some yogurt and some lemon juice together. It was so easy. I appreciate all the various ways you have tried it, it is interesting to see the variations. I had used whole milk so I’m glad to see it works with low fat too! Thanks!
Thanks for stopping by my blog, Radhika! I’m glad to have discovered your blog too! You’ve got a number of interesting recipes and I love your section on photography. Your pics are gorgeous.
As for the paneer, I had no clue that it could be made with fat-free milk. Paneer – here I come!
amazing! thanks for sharing. I usually make mine with lime juice and do get the sour taste. sometimes even a light yellow colour!
hope to try this soon.
Hi
excellent recipe! But I was just wondering, because im lactose intolerant, can I use almond milk?
I am not sure how almond milk will work. Instead you can use lactose free milk
