I tried it and the cottage cheese just melted. You should have been more specific with the directions. You should have also said how this DOESN'T EVEN WORK! This does not work.

I had got cottage cheese from ASDA. They suggest to eat with mashed potatoes..I think, plain yogurt is better combination with mashed potatoes rather than cottage cheese. In order to convert it into Indian Panner, I experimented first day directly onto gravy and it just melted. Next day, I tried to do as you had suggested and to my surprise, the 'small bundhis' really sticks together..There is amazing chemical bonding between them. And tastes very yummy too when you put them into gravy later. Thanks Lekhni for your excellent suggestion. I had got cottage cheese from ASDA.

What you can do if you want to decrease the butter content is to throw away the liquid (the whey and melted butter mix) that remains after the cottage cheese clumps. You are right, paneer makhani is a calorie and fat minefield, we can only try to reduce that a bit :) Let me know if you find any more tips for improving this recipe. ??!

I say Paneer makhani is a calorie/fat minefield. Hey, you are trying to avoid fat, at the same time frying it in oil/butter. I say Paneer makhani is a calorie/fat minefield.
