I made this Matar Paneer for the Golden Apron Challenge, Week 13, using frozen peas as my main ingredient.

This is my son's favorite among all the dishes I made for his birthday. He really loves my homemade matar paneer.

Matar Paneer is a favorite dish for many, but some people don't enjoy it without onions and garlic. However, during certain occasions, we avoid using onions and garlic. Today was my father-in-law's memorial, so we made Matar Paneer without onions and garlic as an offering. I used frozen peas for this recipe, and everyone loved it.

Matar Paneer is a dish that's made for every occasion. Whether it's a wedding, birthday party, or any celebration big or small, it always finds a place on our menu.

For this week's theme, I've made Matar Paneer, a favorite dish enjoyed by people of all ages. You can serve it any time of day, from breakfast to dinner.

Matar paneer is a very simple yet delicious curry made from “matar” (Hindi for “peas”) and paneer (fresh cheese). This recipe is a simplified version of the original Indian Matar Paneer, but it is still a powerhouse of flavor and richness.If paneer is not available in your region, you can easily make your own with just two simple ingredients: whole milk and lemon. There is a recipe on my page you can easily follow.NOTES:* Paneer should look like the picture, not not over brown or they will harden. It’s a okay if not all sides get brown.#CA2025
