Matar Paneer Recipe Restaurant Style / Mutter Paneer Recipe with step by step pics. It is a yummy combo of matar/green peas and paneer/cottage cheese, cooked in an onion-tomato based gravy, seasoned with Indian spices. I used Homemade Paneer, Garam Masala Powder and Frozen peas, so the taste was very exotic and delicious. If you want a restaurant touch in the gravy, you can add fresh cream, milk instead of water and honey instead of sugar with little drops of lemon juice at last. For a Dhaba Style, increase the chilli powder and green chilli to make it spicier. Always it is an evergreen combo with Chapati, Phulka, Jeera Rice and even with Veg Pulao (Do click the highlighted words for the recipe link).

Notes

Tips for Matar Paneer Recipe Restaurant Style

1. If you don’t like grinding onions, it can be chopped and used. 
2. Also, you can make it as a no onion - no garlic recipe (Jain Style) by skipping the onion, garlic and ginger.
3. Don't skip cashews as it adds thickness and richness to the Mutter Paneer Recipe.
4. Instead of oil, ghee or butter can be used for tempering which lends a nice taste.
5. Adjust chilli powder and garam masala powder as per spice level and flavours required.
6. I directly used the paneer, you can shallow fry it and use it for a hotel style gravy.
7. I used water (step 5), you can even replace it with milk for a rich taste.
7. You can adjust the peas and paneer quantity as per your wish.
8. If you are calorie conscious, you can replace paneer with tofu too.
9. Even fresh cream or unsweetened khoya can be added at last, for a tasty gravy.
10. Never miss adding sugar and kasuri methi leaves as it lends a perfect Matar Paneer Recipe Restaurant Style.
