Weeknight Matar Paneer
  1. Dice your onion and grate your ginger and garlic with a microplane.

  2. Add oil to pan over medium-high heat, then add garlic and ginger.

  3. Reduce heat to medium and add spices. Cook until fragrant.

  4. Add tomato sauce/puree. Simmer until you can see oil on the edges.

  5. Add yogurt, mix quickly.

  6. Once incorporated, add your paneer and peas, then mix. Add ½ cup water, salt, honey, and fenugreek and stir, then cover and let cook until everything is warmed through.

  7. Remove lid and cook on high until it's reduced to a thicker sauce and almost all the water has evaporated, stirring regularly.

  8. Serve with roti, naan, or basmati rice.

Note: you can fry your paneer if you like a crispy edge before simmering in the curry. This is versatile! I am going to make mine with green beans and tofu, because that's what I have in my fridge.
