Paneer, a fresh, non-aged cheese widely used in Indian cuisine, is made by curdling milk with an acid like lemon juice or vinegar. This versatile dairy product is rich in protein, making it a valuable inclusion for vegetarians seeking high-quality nutrients. It also provides calcium, which is essential for bone health, and phosphorus, supporting energy production and cell repair. Paneer is lower in carbohydrates, making it a good option for certain diets. However, it’s often high in fat, especially if made with full-fat milk, so moderation is key for those monitoring their fat intake. Traditionally featured in dishes like Palak Paneer and Paneer Tikka, it’s adaptable to a range of cooking styles, from grilling to frying. With its mild flavor and tender texture, paneer is both nutritious and satisfying, lending itself to flavorful meals that cater to diverse dietary needs.
