Paneer Tikka Masala

Paneer is a fresh cheese common in South Asia Cuisine. Itsof Indian origin. It is an un-aged, acid set, non melting cheese made by curdling heated milk with lemon juice or any other food acid.

Unlike most cheeses in the world, the making of paneer
does not involve rennet as the coagulation agent, thus making it completely lacto-vegetarian and providing a source of protein for vegetarians.
