Bangalore, Kodai, Chennai and other places in some supermarkets. Also big
supermarkets and gourmet shops like Nature's basket stock on cheeses and also
ones made in India in the cheese section of the market.
Not the processed ones that is marketed by big brands. You get proper original
cheeses which are imported or made by some indian cheese factories. They are
definitely available, but expensive.

1) Paneer or Cottage cheese-

No doubt the most popular cheese in India. It is made by coagulating warm milk with
an acid like lime juice or vinegar. It's set hard by removing maximum moisture and
retain their shape upon cooking.

2) Ricotta cheese-
Process of coagulation is same as cottage cheese but instead of just milk we use a
mixture of milk and cream. Once it coagulates, it is put in netted moulds where the
excess water is removed completely. It's soft set. Used widely in the filling for raviolis,
ricotta cakes and I like to use it in my salads.

3) Mozzarella-
Traditional mozzarella is made by adding rennet and lime juice to warm Buffalo milk
and it is allowed to coagulate. Then the coagulated part is pulled together and
stretched and made into small balls and added to cold water.
