Directions

1. Pour milk into Large Sauce Pan and bring slowly to a boil on medium heat to high heat, stirring constantly with the spatuler.
2. Once it boils, immediately remove from stove to prevent boil over, and add the juice from three lemons. (1/4 cup of juice). Stir until curds and whey are separated. If not separating, return to heat, it will work magic.
3. Place cheesecloth in collander. Pour the curds into the cheese cloth, watching for steam. Rinse with water to remove lemon juice flavor. Squeeze out the water.
4. Place squished cheese in cheesecloth in a bowl and add the weight on top. Put in the fridge and wait 20 minutes until cold.
5. Remove from cheesecloth. Slice up the cheese into cubes. Mix with turmeric, oil and pepper flakes.
6. Saute cheese in pan on one side for 5 minutes on medium to high heat. It should brown a bit, stir and brown again for 3 more minutes, then remove. It is now ready to be eaten or added to Saag Paneer.
