  Can someone suggest an alternative cheese to paneer as impossible to buy where I live?

  Really easy and tasty. My meat loving husband loved it. Worked really well with the spicy rice suggested. I could not find paneer so used halloumi and I left out the chilli as prefer things not too spicy.

  I did this to accompany Indian Shepherds pie for friends on the Royal Wedding day. It went down a storm with adults and kids alike. We were fighting over the last bits in the bottom of the bowl! Really tasty!

  You can make your own paneer by bringing milk to the boil then adding a dash lemon juice or vinegar to curdle it. Stir gently then strain through muslin or a fine sieve to collect the solids. If you want a solid lump to cut into pieces, wrap in a muslin cloth and put a weight on top and leave for a few hours or overnight in the fridge. You don't get much solid from skimmed or semi-skimmed milk, so better to use full fat for this.

  Usually slightly larger Sainsbury's sell paneer; in ours it is just with the cheese. It is also reasonably priced (1.49-1.69), so good for budget cooking.

  Very nice, light meal. My suggestion would be to maybe fry the paneer in a little oil before doing the rest of the dish, and then just mix it through towards the end. I had trouble getting my paneer "golden brown". Tasty though :o) Will be doing again if I feel in a paneer buying mood :o)
