Step 1

For best results, thaw frozen paneer overnight in the refrigerator. If you don't have time for that, leave it out at the counter for a few hours until it thaws partially.

Step 2

Cut the whole paneer into 1-inch cubes. Leave it on the kitchen counter for at least 30 minutes, and up to 2 hours.

Step 3

Fill a medium size bowl with warm water (about 110 degrees F). Immerse the paneer cubes into the water, making sure all parts of the paneer are fully submerged. Allow to sit for 5-10 minutes, then drain.

Step 4

Add 1/2 - 1 cup water to a deep frypan and bring it to a boil. Turn off the heat and place a steamer tray or basket on top.

Step 5

Place the paneer on the tray and cover it with a lid. Leave aside for 10-15 minutes, until the paneer is softened.

Step 6

Add 2 cups of water to a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Drop in the paneer cubes and boil for 30 seconds - 1 minute.

Step 7

Strain and immediately set in a bowl of cool water for 10 minutes. Drain and proceed with your recipe.

Step 8

Set a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1-2 tablespoons oil or ghee, and allow to heat for 1 minute.

Step 9

Add paneer cubes and toss every 10-15 seconds, until the paneer is soft and the edges are a light golden brown. This should take about 2-3 minutes in total.
