Directions

1. 1

   For the paneer, peel 2 cloves of garlic and chop finely. Wash the parsley and shake dry. Pluck off leaves and chop finely. Bring milk, cream and 1 teaspoon salt to the boil in a high pot. Remove the pot from the heat, stir vinegar into the milk-cream mixture. Add garlic, parsley and 5-6 ice cubes and let cool down for 5-10 minutes. Pour the curdled milk into a damp passing cloth, drain and squeeze vigorously. Pour the paneer mixture once more into a second damp cloth, squeeze firmly and tie tightly with kitchen twine. Hang knots over the sieve at the sides and weigh down the paneer with 2-3 kg (e.g. with a pot and tins) and continue pressing for about 3 hours. Remove the finished panelling from the cloth, store the liquid and chill both until use
