Another Paneer Dish :D

Ingredients


Hari Matar (Green peas) - 400 grams
Ghee - 2 tablespoon + to deep fry
Onions - 2 large
Ginger - 1 inch piece
Turmeric powder - 1/4 teaspoon
Red chilli powder - 1 teaspoon

Salt to taste

Method

Cut the paneer into cubes. Heat sufficient ghee in a kadai and deep-fry till light brown. Drain onto an absorbent paper.

Peel, wash and chop onions and ginger finely.

Heat two tablespoons ghee in a pan and add chopped onions and ginger. Sauté till lightly browned. Add turmeric powder, red chilli powder, coriander powder, salt and peas and cook, adding a little water, till the peas are tender and a little gravy remains.

P.S. In place of GHEE you can always use OIL...
