Directions

  • blend all the ingredients mentioned under masala paste in a grinder or blender to a smooth paste. no need to add water while grinding. keep aside.
  • heat oil or ghee. add 1/2 tsp cumin seeds. saute the cumin till they splutter.
  • then add the ground masala paste. stir. take care while sauteing as the paste splutters. if there is too much spluttering, then cover partly with a lid till the spluttering stops.
  • saute for 10-12 minutes or more on a low to medium flame till the oil separates from the paste.
  • add all the dry spice powders - turmeric powder, red chili powder, garam masala powder. stir well.
  • if adding cream or malai, you can add now. stir and saute for a minute.
  • then add the peas or matar. stir again.
  • add water and season with salt.
  • cover the cooker tightly and pressure cook till the matar/peas are cooked. cook for about 2 to 3 whistles or 9 to 10 minutes. (check notes below on how to cook in a pan.)
  • when the pressure drops on its own, open the lid of the pressure cooker.
  • if the curry appears thin, then simmer till it reaches the desired consistency. the consistency is medium and neither thick nor thin.
  • if the gravy appears thick, then add some water and simmer.
  • add the paneer cubes. simmer for 1 to 2 minutes on a low flame or till the paneer cubes get cooked. for a slight sweet taste, you can also add sugar just before you add the paneer cubes.
  • dont overcook as the paneer becomes dense and hard then.
  • garnish matar paneer with coriander leaves.
  • serve matar paneer with rotis, parathas, naan or rice.
