Postup

Krok za krokom

1
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or deep pan over medium heat.
Približne 1 min
2
Add the paneer cubes and fry until lightly golden on all sides, about 3-5 minutes. Remove the paneer and set aside.
Približne 5 min
Poznámka kuchára: Do not overcrowd the pan; fry in batches if necessary.
3
In the same pot, add the chopped yellow onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
Približne 7 min
4
Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and minced green chili, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
Približne 1 min
5
Add the ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, and garam masala. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until the spices are aromatic.
Približne 1 min
Poznámka kuchára: Ensure the spices don't burn by keeping the heat moderate.
6
Pour in the tomato puree and water. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Približne 15 min
Poznámka kuchára: Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
7
Stir in the green peas and salt. Continue to simmer for another 5 minutes, or until the peas are tender.
Približne 5 min
Poznámka kuchára: If using frozen peas, there's no need to thaw them first.
8
Gently fold in the fried paneer cubes and cook for 2-3 minutes more, just until the paneer is heated through.
Približne 3 min
9
Garnish with fresh cilantro, if using, before serving.
