Ingredients
- 250 g paneer, cubed
- 1 cup green peas
- 2 onions, finely chopped
- 2 tomatoes, pureed
- 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste
- 2 tablespoons oil or ghee
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Prifeel Turmeric Powder
- 1 teaspoon Prifeel Red Chilli Powder
- 2 teaspoons Prifeel Coriander Powder
- 1 teaspoon Prifeel Garam Masala
- Salt to taste
- Fresh coriander leaves for garnish
How to Make Matar Paneer
Step 1: Prepare the Base
Heat oil or ghee in a pan and add cumin seeds. Once they begin to crackle, add chopped onions and sauté until golden brown.
Step 2: Add Aromatics
Mix in the ginger-garlic paste and cook until the raw smell disappears.
Step 3: Build the Flavor
Add tomato puree and cook until the oil separates from the masala. Stir in Prifeel Turmeric Powder, Prifeel Red Chilli Powder, Prifeel Coriander Powder, and salt. Cook for another 2–3 minutes to develop a rich, flavorful base.
Step 4: Add Peas
Mix in the green peas and cook for a few minutes. Add a little water if needed and let the peas become tender.
Step 5: Add Paneer
Gently add the paneer cubes and simmer for 5–7 minutes so they absorb the delicious gravy.
Step 6: Finish with Prifeel Garam Masala
Sprinkle Prifeel Garam Masala over the curry, stir gently, and garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves.
Serve hot with butter naan, roti, paratha, jeera rice, or steamed basmati rice.
