I've been wanting to make flavoured paneer for a long time, and finally did so today. It tasted really lovely, and I am definitely experimenting more with flavoured paneer.
For paneer:
1 litre milk
1/3 cup curds
1 lemon
1 tsp oregano flakes
For bhurji:
1 tbsp til oil
1 onion chopped fine
1 tbsp (flavoured) vinegar
Salt to taste
Method:
Take the milk in a thick bottomed vessel, and heat it. When it starts
heating up, stir in the curds (well beaten), and keep stirring. At this stage, add the oregano flakes (or any other flavour you want to experiment with).
When the milk comes to a boil, lower the flame, and squeeze in the juice
of 1/2 lemon. Squeeze in the other half if the paneer doesn't seperate.
Line a colander with a muslin cloth and pour the mixture in. Once all
the water has drained out, place a weight on the cloth, and leave it for
about 30 minutes
Cut into cubes.
Heat the til oil, and fry the paneer pieces on low heat. Remove the paneer pieces.
In the same oil, saute the onions till the raw smell goes. Turn off the fire
Add the paneer pieces, vinegar and salt, and mix well.
