Prep Time: 10 minutes
Bring the milk to boil in a pot. Squeeze in the lemon juice and allow it to fully curdle. Turn off the heat. You can see the light water separate form the milk fat. Strain this out and save the fat. Squeeze out all the water and set in a flat plate. Cover it with cling wrap and place some thing heavy (like another plate) over it and let it set in the refrigerator for about 3-4 hours. Cut into cubes and use as necessary.
