Then, using your spatula, mash them up and add 1 tsp of stevia. Let it thicken a little and turn off the flame.For the base, grind all the ingredients until well combined and press them down firmly into your container. Refrigerate for 10 mins.Blend your homemade low-fat paneer along with the greek yoghurt, honey and vanilla essence until the mixture resembles cream cheese (quantity of yoghurt will depend on how soft or hard the paneer is).Mix this blended paneer mixture with 2-3 tbsps of strawberry compote and pour it onto the base layer.Add more strawberry compote on top, along with fresh strawberries, and refrigerate overnight<\/p>\n<p>Note to readers: This report is based on user-generated content from social media.
