How to make paneer in instant pot



1. Keep 3 liters of milk in instant pot and press yogurt button                      

2.then quickly press 'adjust' button then the display will show " boil" . Leave it until you see the display change to " yoght"

3. Now your milk is boiled to the correct temperature.  Open the lid when you are able to.  In a minute there will be steam, so it takes about a minute to open the lid.

4. Add tablespoons of lemon juice one spoon at a time and keep stirring the milk in one direction. After 2 or 3 spoonfuls, the milk start to break. Add + Stir until you see a light yellowing, greenish translucent liquid and broken milk solid masses

5. Quickly strain on a strainer lined with cheese cloth and pour everything on it. Pick the cheese cloth by ends and make a bundle. Squeeze some water out with hands without burning your hand. It will be HOT. Let it hang for 5 minutes.                      

6. Keep it under a weight, and set the timer for 20 or 25 minutes
You will get yummy soft paneer, which wont break down or crumble, which will be much better quality than store-bought.

Thanks to my friend Rakhi for the instructions!
