Mattar Paneer

• tempo total: 40 minutes

Ingredientes

250g cubed Paneer

200g frozen peas

2 medium finely chopped onions

3 medium chopped tomatoes

200 ml water

4-5 chopped garlic cloves

1 tsp cumin seeds

1 tsp turmeric powder

1 tsp red chilli powder

1 tsp garam masala

1/2 tsp coriander powder

1/2 tsp chaat masala

2 bay leaves

2 dry red chillis

Salt to taste

2 tsp Dried fenugreek

Instruções

Begin by either shallow frying or air frying your paneer till lightly golden (I prefer air frying them).

In a pan sauté the red chillis, cumin, garlic, bay leaves and onions.

Once browned add all the dry spices and chopped tomatoes. Cook for 5 minutes till some of the moisture evaporates.

Add the peas, water, salt to taste and paneer. Cook on a low flame for 25 minutes.

Crush over some dried fenugreek and cook for another 10 minutes. You may wish to adjust the consistency at this point (I prefer a thicker consistency).

Serve with some fluffy basmati or warm buttery rotiyan (or both 🫶🏾)
