Now again this is one of those punjabi curry recipes I have grown up eating. This Paneer recipe has been kind of a staple in punjabi kitchens. The recipe which I am sharing today is my Mom’s homemade matar paneer. It is homestyle Punjabi recipe. Dhaba style or restaurant style matar paneer recipe is slightly different and quite rich with cream, butter and lots of fat. That’s tasty as well but not the sort of paneer curry for everyday eating.
For making this matar paneer, first of all you need to fry paneer cubes. You can either deep fry paneer or you can pan fry it as per your taste. I prefer to pan fry in less oil. The taste of the matar paneer comes from the gravy. To make the recipe, fresh green peas taste best. I sometimes make the curry with frozen peas, that tases good too.
If you are looking for a nutritious meat-free meal, matar paneer with rice makes an excellent meal in a bowl.
How to Make Matar Paneer – Recipe Notes
- Use good quality soft paneer. You can use store bought paneer or See How to make Paneer from Milk.
- When you are making matar paneer or any paneer gravy add paneer in last. Overcooked paneer does not taste good.
- Make paneer curry in advance, that way paneer soaks up favour from the gravy. I add the paneer in the simmering curry and immediately switch off the heat. Paneer is cooked while you reheat it.
- Never skimp on tomatoes. Tomato gives it a tangy taste and a beautiful red hue and tangy taste.
- I avoid adding cashew paste and make it nutfree. Sometimes I add just a light splash of milk cream or milk. You can add what you like.
- You can make it vegan and use Tofu instead of paneer.
- To make best matar paneer and make it more flavourful add Kasuri methi in the last.
