Creamy Mattar Paneer


By Vegetarian Spice (Visit website)



~~Peas and Paneer in a creamy sauce~~


I made this last night. An incredibly easy dish to make with ingredients straight from the freezer.

Ingredients:
2 large onions
4 cloves garlic
2 large tomatoes, diced
10-12 Cashew nuts
3 cups Frozen peas
250g Paneer Cubes, fried separately.
2 Tbs yogurt

1 tsp garam masala
2 tsp chilli powder
1/2 tsp turmeric
1 tsp cumin seeds
salt to taste
oil
ghee

1. Finely dice onion and garlic, and saute in oil/ghee until transparent.
2. Add cumin seeds and saute.
3. Crush cashew nuts and add, along with tomatoes.
4. Cover and let simmer for 10 minutes.
5. Blend with yogurt until smooth in a food processor. The smoother the consistency, the better!
6. Heat more oil in a pan and add the mixture.
7. Add all the spices, the above mixture, salt and peas. Let simmer for 10 minutes, or until peas are cooked. You can add a small amount of water at any stage to prevent burning.
8. Add the fried panner cubes. Let simmer for a few minutes longer. Serve.

Serves 4

Tip: Placing paneer into warm water immediately after frying keeps them moist and prevents them from drying out.

PS: I think this version of mattar paneer tastes great, but my only wish is for its colour to be more red as it is in restaurants. If anyone knows how I can achieve a more vibrant colour, let me know!
