Famous India > Foods From India > Matar Paneer

Matar Paneer

India is known throughout the world for its foods. The Indian Delicacies add to the charm of India. Its not only the monuments and the places to see which leave a mark on its visitors, but also the Indian Food. The Indian Food and its tastes have changed dramatically from the time when Mughals ruled the Indian Soils, still the mark they left still remains. There are foods which remind of the Royal Ages - Matar Paneer being one of them.

Prepared mostly in the North Indian Homes, Matar Paneer has a special place in the Indian Vegetarian Homes. Being a part of all the major Indian Festivals and occasions, it has the same taste and aroma which the Royal Indians Left. Though the years have seen changes in the pattern of Matar Paneer, it is still the favored one.

    Preparation Method

    Boil the dry green peas in a Pressure Cooker or on a medium heat till one steam comes. After boiling the peas, put them in a separate vessel. On the other side, blend the onion, ginger, garlic and tomatoes. Blend them till they make a fine paste. Heat oil in a sauce pan and fry the paneer until they turn golden. Once fried, put them in a platter. In the heated oil add turmeric, red chilli, asafoetida and the paste of onion and tomatoes. Fry these until light brown.

    Our Suggestions
    • Matar Panner is a pure vegetarian dish. It is served in the same manner and no alterations to Non - Vegetarian food are preferred.
    • Though Variants of Matar Panner are prepared still, Matar Panner makes for the best alternative. Still you should try the variants like palak panner, palak paneer, shahi panner, paneer bhurj, paneer rasala, paneer makhani, paneer butter masala and panner amritsari.
    • Indian Food is best served and savored when it is peeping hot. Insist on having it the same way.
    • You will find Delicacy like Matar Paneer in North and West India ( places like Agra, Delhi and Jaipur). North Eastern States and Southern States are less in preparing this delicacy.
    • The Typical North Indian Food includes other delicacies too. If you are a guest to a Indian Home, try out the entire range.
    • Chutnies ( Indian Sauces ) make an important part of the North Indian Food. Don't forget to try them.
    • If you are a guest to a Vegetarian Host, be prepared to have a Vegetarian Food. Do not insist on a Non - Vegetarian Food. They might not like it.

Multiplexes Theaters have made the choice more easy. But despite of all these advantages, these Shopping Malls have a major drawback – the prices.
