What is paneer? Is it tofu?

@hejdukova2
Paneer is purely animal based product which is prepared from curdled milk and widely used in Indian cooking for preparing many curries, desserts and many more. U can even refer to one of my videos "How to make Paneer" to get a better idea about it. ... Tofu is purely plant based product and is a rich source of protein.
