\n1\/2 inch piece of Ginger (\u0905\u0926\u0930\u0915 – Adarak), chopped

\n1\/2 teaspoon Red Chilli (\u0932\u093e\u0932 \u092e\u093f\u0930\u094d\u091a – Laal Mirch) Powder
\n1\/4 teaspoon Turmeric (\u0939\u0932\u094d\u0926\u0940 – Haldi) Powder
\n1 teaspoon Coriander (\u0927\u0928\u093f\u092f\u093e – Dhaniya) Powder
\n1\/4 teaspoon Garam Masala (\u0917\u0930\u092e \u092e\u0938\u093e\u0932\u093e) Powder
\nFor shallow frying + 2 tablespoons Oil or Ghee (\u0918\u0940 – Clarified butter)
\n1\/2 cup + 2 tablespoons Water (\u092a\u093e\u0928\u0940 – Paani)
\nSalt (\u0928\u092e\u0915 – Namak) to taste
\nOptional fresh Cilantro or Coriander (\u0927\u0928\u093f\u092f\u093e – Dhaniya)<\/p>\n

Method:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

1. Grind onion, green chilli, ginger and garlic together in the small chutney jar of a grinder to make medium (\u092e\u0927\u094d\u092f\u092e – Madhyam) coarse paste. Grind the tomatoes to make tomato puree.<\/p>\n

2. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in the same pan over medium flame (\u0906\u0902\u091a – Aanch). Add crushed onion paste and salt. Stir it until oil starts to separate or it turns translucent (\u092a\u093e\u0930\u0926\u0930\u094d\u0936\u0940 –\u00a0 Paardarshi). It will take around 8-10 minutes.<\/p>\n

3. Add tomato puree and cook on medium flame until oil starts to separate, for approx. 5-6 minutes. Add red chilli powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, garam masala powder and salt to the pan. Stir and cook for a minute.<\/p>\n

4. Add boiled peas and 1\/2 cup water; mix properly and cook for 2-3 minutes. Now add paneer cubes and cook for 2-3 minutes. We have added plain paneer cubes but you can add shallow fried paneer to enhance the flavor (\u0938\u094d\u0935\u093e\u0926 – Svad).<\/p>\n

5. Turn off flame and transfer prepared curry to a serving bowl. Matar paneer is ready (\u0924\u0948\u092f\u093e\u0930 – Aayaar)<\/span>. Optionally, you can garnish the dish with fresh Clintro or Corinder leaves. Serve it hot with fresh Indian bread like Roti (\u0930\u094b\u091f\u0940) or Naan (\u0928\u093e\u0928 – Naan) or boiled rice (\u091a\u093e\u0935\u0932 – Chawal).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
