Comment préparer Mattar Paneer

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 cup of cubed paneer and fry until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside.
  2. In the same pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil. Add 1 teaspoon of mustard seeds and 1 teaspoon of cumin seeds. Cook until they begin to splutter (about 30 seconds).
  3. Add 1 medium onion (finely chopped), 1 inch ginger (minced), and 2 cloves garlic (minced). Cook until onions soften, about 5 minutes.
  4. Add 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon sugar, and cook until tomatoes soften, about 8-10 minutes.
  5. Stir in 1 teaspoon garam masala, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (adjust to taste), 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1 teaspoon coriander powder, and 1 teaspoon cumin powder.
  6. Add 1 cup of water (or more, as needed for desired consistency). Bring to a simmer.
  7. Add 1 cup frozen peas. Cook until peas are tender, about 3-5 minutes.
  8. Pour in 1/2 cup fat-free half & half or fat-free yogurt. Stir gently.
  9. Add the fried paneer back to the sauce. Simmer on medium heat for 5 minutes, allowing the paneer to absorb the flavors.
  10. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot with rice or naan bread.
