Grilled Paneer

 

Ingredients:

 

An excellent recipe for your barbecue party.

Ingredients:

For Paneer:

1. 2l whole milk

2. 4 tbsp. white vinegar (approximately)

3. 1 green chili chopped finely (optional)

4. 2 tbsp. fresh chopped, coriander (or any other herb)

5. 1 garlic clove, minced

6. salt to taste

For Marinating:

1. 2 tbsp. olive oil

2. 1 tbsp. white vinegar

3. 1 tsp. lemon juice

4. 1 tbsp. fresh chopped coriander (or any other herb)

5. ½-inch ginger, grated

6. salt to taste

For Garnishing:

Some fresh chopped coriander (or any other herbs)

 

Method:

Method:

1. Boil the milk.

2. When it comes to a boil add 4 tbsp. of vinegar.  Wait till the milk curdles

and separates.  In a few seconds milk will separate and cheese will float in a

pale greenish liquid.

3. Remove from heat.

4. Strain through a muslin/cheese cloth.

5. Mix green chilies, coriander, garlic and salt in the paneer while its still

in the muslin cloth.

6. Bring together the four corners of the cloth so as to form a bag with the

paneer inside.  Tie a knot around the paneer with the help of one corner of the

cloth.

7. Place the bag of paneer on a flat surface and cover it with a flat object and

press gently with hands to remove the excess water.  Press lightly for 2-3

minutes till the paneer is set.

8. Remove the paneer from the cloth and let it cool. (A good paneer should not

stick to the cloth at all.)

9. Cut into 1-inch cubes.

10. Mix together all the ingredients for marinating.  Marinate paneer in the

mixture for 3-4 hrs.  Arrange the paneer in a wooden skewer and grill till it

starts browning on the edges.  Sprinkle some more herbs to garnish and serve

hot.
