1. Bring 3/4 gallon of milk to a boil. Once it comes to a boil add in the lemon juice. The milk will begin to curdle.

2. Once all the whey separates, drain on a cheese cloth. Tie the cheese cloth and place under running water for a minute to cool it down and remove any sourness of the lemon. Then hang the cheese cloth for about 45 minutes.

5. In the mean time, boil 4 cups of water with 3/4 cups of sugar. Drop the paneer into the boiling syrup. Boil till they double in size.

6. Keep a boil of cold water ready. Drop the paneer into cold water and let them soak for about 30 minutes. The paneer should sink to the bottom after a while. Bring 2 cups of milk to a boil.

7. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar and reduce the mixture to half. Add in the saffron.

8. Also add in the cardamom and sliced almonds. Bring the mixture to a boil. Turn the heat off.
