  2. Procedure to make Chenna:-Boil milk and as soon as it begins to boil add half tablespoon vinegar and stir.If the milk doesn't curdle then add half tablespoon more vinegar little by little.Stop adding once the green liquid starts separating.
  3. Turn the gas off and strain it.Let the water drain off on it's own for a few mins, do not squeeze out water forcefully.That will leave the Chenna dry and chewy.
