Fried Paneer with Meyer's Lemon Olive Oil & Sweet Balsamic Syrup Dressed Rainbow Sprouts

I would like to eat more cheese, but cheese made with just animal rennet or vinegar is really hard to find in my area. I had found some good ones at an Italian Market online, but I really don’t like paying the refrigeration charges. So I tend to just drink whole raw milk instead. Recently reading cheese labels I was surprised to see that paneer is made with only vinegar.

So today I figured that I would figure out something to do with it. Since I really don’t like spending time on making my meals I thought I would first try frying it. So I got my pan hot added in some refined coconut oil, cut my paneer in about one half-inch thick slices, and quickly fried one to test. When it was well browned I removed it from the pan, seasoned it with a little salt and was really happy with it! So I washed up some sprouts and got them on my place. I fried up the rest of my paneer slices, got them on my plate and seasoned them with an Italian Parmesan, tomato & basil salt. I added a teaspoon of Meyer’s lemon olive oil and some of my homemade balsamic syrup and boy was this ever good. This is something I will be eating more of to keep my weight in check.

    1. I am going to use up the rest of my block a couple of more ways. I am thinking to do an Italian version like fried mozzarella, topping it with a little pizza sauce or marinara and finish it with some torn basil. Thinking about yesterdays version I think I am going to try adding a hint of butter to the refined coconut oil for frying up the paneer to keep it from sticking to the pan. Let me know what you think when you make yours Barbara.
