Deepaczku, my Indian neighbor lady uses vinegar with the "european milk" instead of lime juice. And based on my own experience - you need to buy "fat milk" i.e. 3% (you guys have REAL milk in India, we have just UHT milk
I made Indian cheese in Poland for my friends ... with 3.2% milk .. and I used lime Juice because it maintain a level of sweetness in the cheese .. with 3% 2 Litre milk you can make around 300 gms of cheese. Try it, I'm sure it'll come out to be prefect.
I cook Indian quite often. My hubby and I love Indian cuisine. I cook Northern way, rarely using rasins, nuts and coconut milk for savoury dishes.
I guess my favourite is matar paneer and my husband's ... no surprise: butter chicken

I use vinegar too and I dont find paneer less sweet. Recently I got lazy (I get home from work too late to start from scratch...) and use ricotta cheese from Italian deli. I buy the less moist one, which can be cut in cubes and slightly grill them in the oven. Then I use half for one dinner and freeze the rest (the package weighs 645g).
