Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 liter Lactose free full-cream milk We used a 3% fat milk
  • 0.5 Lemon

Instructions
 

  • Pour the milk into a pot over a medium-high heat
  • In the meanwhile, squeeze half lemon with a juicer and keep it aside
  • Before the milk would boil, when it reaches around 90°, take it off the heat and add the lemon in the pot
  • Mix for a few seconds and let it rest for 10 minutes
  • Prepare a strainer over a bowl and line it with a cloth. We used a regular kitchen towel
  • Break the formed curd with a spoon or a ladle and start scooping the big curds and transferring them to the strainer. Then pour the remaining curd and the whey over the strainer.
  • When the curd is over, place the container with the strainer in the fridge for 2-3 hours until it solidifies

Notes

  • When it rests for 10 minutes, you will see the curd and whey separating with the help of the lemon.
