Method:

1. Bring the milk to boil.  Add vinegar/lemon juice and let the milk curdle.  Simmer for a minute till the milk is completely curdled (you should get a light green color whey).
2. Strain and put under running water for half a minute.
3. Squeeze out the excess water and shift to a plate.  Add all the remaining ingredients and mash with hands till you get a smooth paste.
9. Peel the mangoes and make thin long slices.  Dip the slices in the sugar syrup (so that the slices don’t turn black).
4. Take a slice and place little paneer filling at one end and roll the slices up tightly.  Make such rolls with the remaining slices.
5. If necessary secure the roll with a toothpick.
6. Decorate with silver foil and chill till served.
