Directions
Reduced Fat Homemade Cheese – Indian Paneer,I got this recipe from the betty crocker indian cook book and reduced the recipe for lesser versions and used reduced fat materials.,This was so easy, and so much fun! I’ve never made my own cheese before, and the flavor of this stuff was terrific. I learned the hard way, though, not to use skim milk (all I had)–2 pints milk only yielded about 1/2 c cheese. Disappointing, yes, but my own dumb fault for trying to bleed a turnip LOL! Also, used lemon juice in lieu of vinegar and it worked fine. Thanks for posting this–it is going to be fun to use in recipes and even to flavor for eating on its own!
