  • Zainab Shah is back to show us how to make her recipe for Mattar Paneer. Traditionally, roasted and crushed cashews are puréed with cooked onions and tomatoes to make the base for this comforting vegetarian dish. But this version skips the puréeing hassle, instead, a hefty amount of cashew butter acts as a shortcut for the same nutty flavor and creamy texture.

    Some comments on the cooking method:
    1) jeera (cumin seed) is usually added to the hot oil before adding the onions. This is to infuse the flavour into the oil. If you do it after you need to clear some of the onions and infuse it in the excess oil. Would not recommend adding it in with the spice powders the way she does.
    2) Along with red chili powder and turmeric, cumin and coriander powder can also be added to the mix and some folks add garam masala powder.
    3) after adding spice powders the spices need to be fried well for some time with onions in the oil. This is called “bhunna”. Its a very important step and enhances the flavour.
    4) after adding the tomatoes you need to keep cooking the curry till the oil separates. Also: i like to blanch, peel, and puree tomatoes instead of chopping them but thats just me. 😬

    4:04 generally while cooking Indian curries, we avoid adding water as soon as tomatoes are added. This causes the raw taste of tomatoes to be there till end. After you add salt, you kind of allow the tomatoes cook itself for 2-3 minutes and gets mashed. Then 2-3 minutes later you can add water.

      I've usually seen the opposite. In this Punjabi base of onion/tomato, adding the tomato causes the spices to stick to the pan and burn quickly, so you want to add water right with tomato. If you cook the tomato long enough the raw taste will go.

    Mincing everything to a fine paste is what restaurants do. In Indian households most of the time you just leave the onion-tomato concoction to cook for some time so that it breaks down and becomes creamy on it's own with all the spices added to it. You don't need cashew butter or whatever in every recipe. That's mostly done to make shahi paneer, paneer butter masala or something richer like that.

    Pro tip: if store-bought, soak the paneer cubes in some warm water for like 20-30 minutes. Pat dry then fry. This will make the paneer tender rather than having a rubbery texture.

      boil your favourite lentils with some salt and set it aside. make sure you don't let the lentils go too soft. then in a kadhai, heat some oil, and saute some fennel seeds, bay leaves, onions- julienne like cut, tomato, cumin, ginger-garlic paste add turmeric and salt. then put back the dal in it.let it cook for a little while. and you're done. add some fresh cut coriander if you like.

    kasuri methi and freshly chopped dhania leaves typically are added, as well, the former roughly when you add the tomatoes and the latter after the garam masala, just before serving.
    a couple drawbacks to ginger-garlic paste: inherently not as fresh as adding the individual ingredients (at least after first made) and not at all useful for Vedic cooking, for which garlic and onion are omitted--important around several festivals and pujas even for some of us who do not normally omit onion and garlic (or when cooking for family and friends who always follow this practice).

    Looks really great and the dish has been composed well, but I would make one change.. Cumin MUST be added first to approximate the authentic flavor. Whole spices like cumin seed need time in the oil and so go in before the onion. The order spices are added is important in N. Indian cuisine.
