What is "matar paneer"?
Matar paneer is a popular vegetarian dish in Indian cuisine that features tender chunks of paneer (a type of Indian cheese) cooked in a spiced tomato-based sauce with green peas. The paneer is typically fried or lightly browned before being added to the sauce, which is flavored with a blend of spices such as cumin, coriander, ginger, and turmeric. The dish is often finished with a splash of cream or yogurt, which helps to balance the heat of the spices and gives the sauce a creamy texture. Matar paneer is usually served with rice or bread such as naan or roti.
