Hello Manjula: I tried to make paneer but..... at end it was not tighten together... ... it was like sugar size... and not like a thick piece ... please suggest
are you american? anyway thank you for the recipe all my guests loved it! once again thank you. This is the most easiest recipe i have ever made x100. as you say
when i make paneer lot of moisture was there so that i cant make rasmalai as all bolls of paneer get melt when i put them in sugar water ? why it is so?
Hello Manjula, i tried this paneer, all was ok, when i opened the muslim cloth it opened into million parts and not got together I tried to press but dont happened. What i did wrong ????
@sinarafelix hi this is vasu here i can tell u one more technique if u roll a chapti roller on ur paneer put for 10 to 20 min in frezeer u get a bettter shaped paneer,
Thank you! I too tried making this last night and I did not add water to my lemon juice, so I got like maybe 1/2 a cup of cheese which resembled ricotta cheese more than paneer. I will try again and I hope to perfect it.
This is fantastic... I love this woman... I am going to try this, and it will cut down on my cost of cheese inteseley... the only thing I need is a cheese cloth!!!
dear manjula thankyou for such a nice video I have tried paneer.why my paneer becomes hard?i tried rasagulla also.sometimes they become too hard.where am i wrong?
@pricofilipinaamerica Although I have not made paneer before, I have made vegan "cheese" out of tofu. You may want to look up a recipe for a soft vegan cheese with a bit of lemon juice and use that for paneer. Either that or make soft tofu out of dried soy beans, and add lemon juice as the coagulant.
@geetapriyadarsini1 it is the percentage of fat in the milk ...In shops you will get different fat percentage milks...usually 0.5%, 2%, 3% or 4% etc ...u can find it on milk packet or box
mmm i just made paneer today i made it in to paneer makani it was so good i was surprised how easy it was i used all of my lemon juice and it still hadn't changed
so i mixed some citrisic acid with water and it changed so fast once it got 2 the right amount of acid i used 2L of full cream milk juice of 1 lemon and a bit 2-3 tsp's of citrisic acid with a bit of water and got about as much paneer as in this vid
i am currently living in sydney...and the milk that we get here is different like cow's milk whole/light /skim etc but not the one which you were saying in the video(2%milk).Hence i would like to know what sort of milk is that and if i don't get that 2%milk,then which milk should i go for and how much pure it should be? like if i go for cow's milk then which one should i buy ...whole milk with fat or light milk with less fat or skim milk no fat.
@anukanji While I do not reside in Sydney, and I know your question was directed at Manjula Aunty, I may have the answer you desire. Whole milk is 3.25% milk fat, low fat is 2%, light is 1%, and skim is 0%. These are U.S. standards, however, being that the U.S. also uses the terms whole/low fat/light/skim, I am led to believe that the percentages will be similar in countries that share this terminology.
Namaste!. Thank you for all the information you are providing us with. I love Paneer, it is my favorite Indian dish, and although I don't know if i am going to get to make it myself, I love to see the elaboration of it.
Have you considered starting your own cooking show? These are amazing recipes! I've been meaning to make shahi paneer and wanted to see how I could make paneer at home!
Anyway, just wanted to say thanks so much for putting this up! Every college kid is probably really grateful to you! Thanks again auntiji :)
Hello Manjula namaste, I made Paneer, Rus Gulla and Russ Malai with your guidance, and to my amazement I came to know I can cook also. YOU ARE A STAR!
Your jhat paat style of cooking, easy way of describing it and spotless kitchen and cleanliness is amazing.
Your camera person is also very precise and always shows the right stuff on the right time. I like to thank you for your awesome recipes and all the hard work. Thanks a lot for everything Aunty jee and bless you.
Namaste. I wanted to make kadhai paneer . The supermarket in my town had not heard of paneer. Luckily you saved the day with this very easy recipe! Thank you Manjula!
excellent demonstration and thank you very much. i learnt how to make cottage cheese from my friend from mumbai. cottage cheese is hardly consume by the tamils in Malaysia and many of them know to make it in the first place. it taste great ! cheers.
As a starving college student... I was able to make this with my roommate's expired milk, and it was awesome. Thank you very much for helping me feed myself.
This is great... exactly what I was looking for.... you're really cute besides you share your name with my mother :) How long should I hang the paneer before using it?
Thanx Manjulaji for the recipe. You can also curdle milk for paneer by using yogurt instead of lime juice. Yes one more thing. All your recipes are very simple and delicious and you are so cute!
Manjula Auntie, you are my hero!! I LOVE Palak Paneer but have always just bought my paneer pre-made.. now I can make it on my own! and my Indian husband is very pleased I am learning to cook Indian food. Thank you!!
@thinkcat01 milk is categorized by the levels of fat. 2% is one step from whole milk so it's definitely not skim (low-fat) but still isn't as thick as whole.
Dear Manjula: Thank you so much for your videos! Finally, I'm learning how to cook the food that I love! Manjula, I've tried 2 X to make paneer and the milk does not make large curds like yours, when I add the lemon in the boiling milk, the milk turns into a granulated form...What am I doing wrong! Thanks again and God Bless!
Thank you so much for posting your recipes!! I have always wanted to try to make Indian food home made as my fiancee is from India and misses food from home. Now that I can see you make them and learn as you teach, I am not afraid to try these recipes!! Last night I made paneer for the first time and today I am making palak paneer!! Thank you!!
Good stuff, thank you. I've been promoting your work. I'm making this right now, and I'll smoke some with a cold smoker, hickory flavour. I'll let you know how it turned out.
wow..ive been wanting to make palak paneer for so long and my mom always told me that cheese will melt and we dont get that kind of cheese here..im so happy with this video madam, im gonna make paneer at home now :-)
Happy new year aunty, hope its fine me addressing you in this manner..
I have become a great fan/ A/c of your kitchen show… am a student studying my masters in the UK and have learnt and gained a lot from your show, I like the way you present this show as well.. Am really impressed!!!!!!…
Guess what aunty I have lately become a great cook… by a simple way of following you…
@Manjulaskitchen thank you. I have a 1/2 gal. of milk that is coming to the end of it's date, so I will make paneer with it, so as not to throw away good milk.
I have just made my first batch. I used some dry milk powder as well since I saw it on another receipe, however the bottom of my pan was thick with dark solids. I guess I have to try a different pan, like you suggest. Thank you! I will now make green beans w/ paneer tomorrow.
Thanks Auntie Ji...My mother used to make quick paneer by using only one spoon of curd. But I dont know why in Canada this formula was not working for me. I was in big trouble as milk was not properly coagulating. I was thinking to call my mother. Then I saw your video, Now I added lemon juice. Its ready now. I have invited my Canadian Friend for dinner and I will cook Shahi Paneer for her. Thumbs Up to you :)
Thanks Manjulaji....Please let me know can we make paneer from whole milk ....coz in india where i am living we dont get 2% or 4 % milk ...Can I make it from whole milk ..and what propotion if i want to make rasgulla or rasmalai....please reply ....my husband wants to eat homemade rasgulla..
hello manjula. thank you so much for your videos . my mom used to make this we are from puertorico and we call it requeson its seasoned with a little salt molded and refrigerated for an hour she made it ever sunday we ate it with fresh baked bread ..sorry just wanted to tel you you remind me of my mom thank you so much!
hi, i tried to make panner, it turned out to be great, however i can only use this panner for bhurji, I would like to make it the way it is sold in market on dairy's, is that possible? Dairy paneer has more lachak and it does not break as easily as the one on this video any tips?
manjula auntiji any help?? i have pressed the panner, removed water, done all still panner isnt the same as indian dairy paneer... Do they use anything else?
i made paneer with the help of your vid. Was good enough for a first try. Thanks a lot ! I wish my future wife can make so many tasty dishes like you :)
I tried this a few minutes ago with 2% but the milk only separated into very tiny bits and pieces..I added a little more lemon juice but it didn't seem to do anything for it. I guess it only works with whole milk?
Hi Manjula...first of all, great procedure to make paneer!...
Secondly, what did u mean when you said if you feel the water is not completely out of the paneer, press it under a heavy pot for 1/2 and hour, @ 4:10....how do i do this?
Hello! I love your helpful videos. I tried to make this cheese today, but i got very tiny curds not large ones as you did. Could it be because I use ultra pasteurized milk? I used whole milk. Thank you very much for your help.
@auotaku You may need to use a bit more lemon / lime juice or distilled vinegar. The whey (watery part) should look pale greenish as Manjula shows in her video.
Hi Manjula, Thanks for this. My cookbook instructions for paneer were defective and I thought I had a failure. Someone told me to look at YouTube, and there you are, showing the correct way. I went back, reboiled the milk, added more lemon juice (and water) and voila! I have paneer. Now I am wondering what to do with the whey left over. It tastes very good, but I wonder if you just throw it out, or have advice on what to do with it. Thanks.JAM
I made paneer today so I could make palak paneer for dinner. When I tried to fry the paneer it melted. Which confused me because paneer doesn't melt. I have no clue what I did wrong. I don't suppose you would know what would cause it melt?
@whysalmon It's just like ricotta cheese. Persians have been using this recipe for thousands of years. We like to pair the paneer (after it's chilled) with walnuts and raisins. Serve with mint tea and you will be in heaven.
I found a website that uses buttermilk to curdle the milk, rather than lemon juice or vinegar. 1 quart (1 L) buttermilk to 1 gallon (4 L) milk. I haven't tried this version or the buttermilk version, yet (The Indian guy who showed me used vinegar), but will probably try the buttermilk version soon. Have you ever tried it using buttermilk?
@leiatyndall Traditional recipes (by traditional, I mean the recipes dating back thousands of years in Persian history), have been using the stomach acid from a goat. As gross as it sounds, it's no different than any other acid you use. Since milk is a base, you can use any acid to make it seperate. Anything from lemons, vinegar, cider, etc works.
Manjulaji, I have wondered how the restuarants get such a smooth finish. Suppose, after we wash the paneer off the lemony taste, I were to knead it and then flatten it out into a rectangle... will that make the paneer dense and inedible? Kindly help with your wisdom and years of experience Manjulaji...
What you should do is, wash it to get rid of the lemon taste n then leave it in the cheesecloth and wrap it up. Put it between 2 plates n weigh it down over night. U should be able to cut it into pieces n it will be smooth. Remove any water that comes out before taking off the weight and if u need 2 weigh it down longer to make it firmer, then leave it longer or put a bit more weight. If u want the slab 2 have a square shape try using a butter mold.
how to use curd instead of lemon to make paneer? do u hve a video on it? i hv tried to make paneer a couple of times wid lemon but the milk never separates..i dnt knw why? i put so much lemon bt still it wud nt separate . it ws funny..
Manjula gee, I always buy Paneer from the nearest Indian shop, Now I know how to make this Paneer, I can't believe its so easy to make. Very Informative. Thanks for your time..
I've seen paneer made many times, but I've always been afraid to try and ruin all that milk (I'm not so good with dairy recipes). This is inspiring though.
err i tried making my own but i had 2 probs: my paneer tasted like lemon juice and i dont haf cheesecloth :D. is it possible to make paneer w/o cheesecloth and use a strainer instead?
Thanks for uploading this one. Will make some today. Hopefully won't have to go to the far off Indian store for paneer!

Secondly, what did u mean when you said if you feel the water is not completely out of the paneer, press it under a heavy pot for 1/2 and hour, @ 4:10....how do i do this?

Hello! I love your helpful videos. I tried to make this cheese today, but i got very tiny curds not large ones as you did. Could it be because I use ultra pasteurized milk? I used whole milk. Thank you very much for your help.
auotaku 1 year ago
@auotaku You may need to use a bit more lemon / lime juice or distilled vinegar. The whey (watery part) should look pale greenish as Manjula shows in her video.

Hi Manjula, Thanks for this. My cookbook instructions for paneer were defective and I thought I had a failure. Someone told me to look at YouTube, and there you are, showing the correct way. I went back, reboiled the milk, added more lemon juice (and water) and voila! I have paneer. Now I am wondering what to do with the whey left over. It tastes very good, but I wonder if you just throw it out, or have advice on what to do with it. Thanks.JAM

I made paneer today so I could make palak paneer for dinner. When I tried to fry the paneer it melted. Which confused me because paneer doesn't melt. I have no clue what I did wrong. I don't suppose you would know what would cause it melt?

@whysalmon It's just like ricotta cheese. Persians have been using this recipe for thousands of years. We like to pair the paneer (after it's chilled) with walnuts and raisins. Serve with mint tea and you will be in heaven.

I found a website that uses buttermilk to curdle the milk, rather than lemon juice or vinegar. 1 quart (1 L) buttermilk to 1 gallon (4 L) milk. I haven't tried this version or the buttermilk version, yet (The Indian guy who showed me used vinegar), but will probably try the buttermilk version soon. Have you ever tried it using buttermilk?
leiatyndall 2 years ago
@leiatyndall Traditional recipes (by traditional, I mean the recipes dating back thousands of years in Persian history), have been using the stomach acid from a goat. As gross as it sounds, it's no different than any other acid you use. Since milk is a base, you can use any acid to make it seperate. Anything from lemons, vinegar, cider, etc works.

Manjulaji, I have wondered how the restuarants get such a smooth finish. Suppose, after we wash the paneer off the lemony taste, I were to knead it and then flatten it out into a rectangle... will that make the paneer dense and inedible? Kindly help with your wisdom and years of experience Manjulaji...

@bilvapatra
What you should do is, wash it to get rid of the lemon taste n then leave it in the cheesecloth and wrap it up. Put it between 2 plates n weigh it down over night. U should be able to cut it into pieces n it will be smooth. Remove any water that comes out before taking off the weight and if u need 2 weigh it down longer to make it firmer, then leave it longer or put a bit more weight. If u want the slab 2 have a square shape try using a butter mold.

rash030 2 years ago
How do you get the paneer firm enough to cut into cubes without it crumbling? Just put it under a heavy pot for a while?
