Matar Paneer
Matar Paneer is a classic Indian dish that is sure to delight your family. This delicious vegetarian dish is made with cubes of paneer cheese and green peas cooked in a flavorful tomato-based sauce. The addition of spices like cumin, turmeric, and garam masala give the dish complexity and depth, while the paneer provides a creamy texture. Serve over steamed basmati rice, or with naan or chapati for a complete meal.
