A rich source of protein and highly versatile, this cheese can do it all, from grilling to poaching to crumbling. Join guest teacher Romy Gill, author of the new book “Romy Gill’s India: Recipes from home,” for a class where you’ll learn everything you’ve ever want to know about this staple of Indian cooking. We’ll start with paneer basics, including a quick overview of how to make it yourself, how to store it and how to prepare it for different kinds of cooking. In the kitchen, we first get a batch of paneer marinating in a generous blend of ginger, garlic and spices. While it sits, we make one of Romy’s daughters’ favorite treats: delicate puff pastry stuffed with a richly flavored filling of fried cumin seeds, aromatics, fresh herbs—and of course plenty of grated paneer. As these bake, we’ll turn the paneer that’s been marinating into a curry whose richness comes from blended cashews. Romy will show you how to perfectly poach paneer so that it comes out tender, flavorful and creamy. Paired with rice or a griddled naan, this dish proves that hearty, nourishing food doesn’t have to contain any meat: paneer will do the trick.
