Paneer

Paneer is also known as Cottage Cheese. Paneer is made from curdling hot milk using lime/lemon juice, vinegar, yogurt, or citric acid. The result is a soft, fluffy cheese that is firm and can be cut into blocks, but doesn't crumble easily.

Paneer has a mild, milky flavour and a dense crumbly texture that goes beautifully well with strong spicy flavours used in many classic Indian dishes. Paneer is known as house of Protein as it contains high amount of protein. Paneer contains a very high amount of potassium that helps in maintaining blood pressure levels. This also helps in preventing stroke.
