Matar Paneer (aka Mutter Paneer) features tender paneer and green peas in a rich, restaurant‑style masala made by sautéing onions, tomatoes, ginger‑garlic, and warm whole spices, then blending to a smooth base with nuts or cream for silkiness before simmering with peas and paneer. The curry balances gentle heat, tomato tang, and a mild sweetness from peas, with garam masala and kasuri methi adding signature aroma, perfect with roti, naan, or rice.
