Matar Paneer

Matar Paneer

Growing up Matar Paneer, a curry made from Indian cheese and peas, was hands down my favorite dish. My brother and I would fight over the last paneer in the pot because we loved it so much. These days, I don't have a lot of time to cook so I have been using my Tikka Masala sauce to quickly whip this childhood favorite together for myself and family.

Serves 4

Ingredients

1 Brooklyn Delhi Tikka Masala

1/4 cup cream or coconut milk

1 14 oz. package paneer, cut into cubes

Method

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the paneer and cook until golden, about 5–7 minutes, turning occasionally.

Add a jar of Brooklyn Delhi Tikka Masala Simmer Sauce, the peas, and 1/4 cup of cream or coconut milk. Stir gently to combine and simmer until the peas are cooked through. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
