How is Paneer used in Thai cooking?

Paneer is a fresh, unaged cheese that holds its shape when cooked, which makes it a reliable vegetarian protein - firm cubes that brown in the pan without melting away. It's an Indian-kitchen staple rather than a Thai one, but it's an excellent traditional substitute when a dish needs body without meat. We don't keep it in the working kitchen to keep ingredients fresh, but it's a good option to know for hearty vegetarian cooking, soaking up sauce while staying tender inside.
