Ingredients

  • 1 liter whole milk

  • 2 tbsp lemon juice or vinegar

  • Cheesecloth/muslin for straining

  • 1 tbsp oil

  • 5–6 garlic cloves, finely chopped

  • 2–3 dried red chilies, crushed

  • 1 small onion, finely chopped

  • 1 green chili, slit (optional for extra heat)

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 tbsp chili sauce

  • 1 tsp vinegar

  • 1 tsp sugar

  • ¼ tsp black pepper

  • Salt, to taste

  • 1 tsp cornstarch mixed in 2 tbsp water (slurry)

  • Spring onions, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

  • Bring milk to a boil. Once it starts bubbling, reduce heat and add lemon juice slowly while stirring.
  • When the milk curdles, turn off the heat. Strain through a muslin cloth and rinse with cold water.
  • Tie the cloth and press under a weight for 30–40 minutes. Cut into cubes once firm.
  • Heat oil in a pan. Add garlic, dried chilies, and green chili. Sauté until aromatic.
  • Add onions and sauté until translucent.
  • Stir in soy sauce, chili sauce, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  • Add the cornstarch slurry and cook until the sauce thickens.
  • Gently toss in the paneer cubes, coating them well in the sauce.
  • Cook for 2–3 minutes until heated through.
  • Garnish with spring onions and serve hot.

Notes

  • Use store-bought paneer for convenience, but homemade is fresher and softer.
  • Adjust chili sauce and garlic to your spice preference.
  • Pairs great with fried rice, noodles, or naan!
