Paneer is very straightforward and worth the time. I do it regularly with a gallon of whole milk. I bought the missis a cheese press the other year when we had a bash at making cheddar, but heavy pots can do the job too.
Chetna Makhan has a good video on it.

Thanks for all these great tips for making paneer. I am on it. Looking at a plastic press gadget. I like gadgets. One of the reviewers reckons it's the perfect size for paneer made with 2 l milk, which should be adequate for me. Can also store with it in the fridge. Only thing is, the inner basket is moulded, so when done my paneer will say TOFUTURE on top of it. Not ideal, but I can live with it.

Paneer planed for this weekend. Wish me luck!

The video mentions paneer sandwiches (triangles) with a walnut filling. Would liked to have seen these being made. Whoever filmed this seemed most interested in what was coming out of the tandoor. Anyway, found a rather interesting recipe for a filling. It's actually part of a curry recipe, which looks nice, but I think the sandwiches themselves might be quite tasty, as a starter dish. I had some paneer sandwiches from a local place fairly recently. They had a really thin green filling. No idea what it was, as it didn't really taste of anything. Wasn't cheap either.
