Paneer is an Indian cheese that you can make at home, but if you don’t have the time or inclination to make it yourself, store-bought paneer works just as well. 
I think this dish tastes amazing and it’s something I will keep on making for lunch. Its creamy and luscious gravy is so easy to make, with minimal ingredients and I promise you gonna make this on repeat. 
This version of my white gravy is especially to pack in lunch boxes in the morning. With Paneer in it comes together so quickly. Let’s see how to make this! 



10 minutes Cashew Matar Paneer Video Recipe:


INGREDIENTS (serves 2) 

  • Paneer- 1 cup (crumbled) 
  • Green peas – 1/4 cup 
  • Garlic – 3 cloves 
  • Ginger – 1/2 inch piece 
  • Cashews – 10 to 12 pieces 
  • Onion – 1/2 
  • Green chilli – 1 
  • Water – 1/2 cup 
  • Ghee – 1 tbsp 
  • Kasuri methi – 1 tbsp 
  • Garam Masala Powder- 1/2 tsp 
  • Salt – as required.   



INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Start by heating water in a pan and cook the green peas. 
  2. While that’s cooking, in a small mixer jar, throw in the garlic, ginger, cashews, green chilli, onion, and water and blend this into a smooth paste. 
  3. Heat ghee in a saucepan pan. Once hot, transfer the mixture and cook it in simmer until the raw smell leaves. 
  4. Add the paneer, cooked green peas, garam masala powder, Kasuri methi and salt. 
  5. Sauté until it comes together and cooks through.
  6. You can also adjust the consistency by adding little water.
  7. Switch off the flame once done and serve it with chilli tadka on top. 
  8. PS- •I have added paneer as crumbled here. You can even dice it.
  9. Green peas are completely optional.
  10. Keeping this as a base, you can add veggies of your choice. 
  11. You can even temper with cumin first before adding the ground mixture. I wanted to keep it simple without any tempering for a smooth gravy texture. 

Notes:

  • Make sure the oil separates from the sides of the masala paste before cooking.
  • The consistency of the curry can also be adjusted by adding water as needed.
  • Additionally, if you want a creamier consistency, add more cream.
  • As a final note, the Kaju paneer masala recipe tastes great when cooked spicy.
