Paneer

Paneer is a fresh Indian cheese made by curdling milk and pressing the curds; it's commonly used in South Asian cooking for curries, grilled preparations and snacks. It is a concentrated source of protein, providing about 21.4g of protein per 100g, which makes it useful where a creamy, high-protein ingredient is desired. Paneer has a mild, milky flavor and a firm texture that holds up well to frying and simmering. Nutrition-wise, paneer supplies substantial protein and also provides fat-soluble nutrients such as vitamin B12, but it is relatively low in fiber and contains a notable amount of saturated fat and calories compared with many plant-based alternatives. This means it can be a good protein-rich choice in moderation, but portion control is helpful if you are watching saturated fat or energy intake. From a health perspective, paneer offers a high-quality amino acid profile and useful B12 for those who consume dairy, though it lacks dietary fiber and has a richer fat profile than many plant proteins—so pairing it with vegetables or using lower-fat versions can improve the overall meal balance.Read more
