    When it comes to making quick gravies for Rotis as side dish, there is nothing more simpler than making with Mattar and Paneer. Both these are surely a hit combination and can be served with almost any Indian Bread. Sometimes I remember making a sandwich with this filling as well. 
    I have already posted two versions of mattar paneer, one with nuts and one without tomato. Today's version is the most common and the simplest. I wonder how I have not shared this under quick 30 mins cooking. Making about six to eight chapatis doesn't take that much time. So this is one of those quick side dishes that you can make when you come back home in the evenings.
    Mattar Paneer

    I normally make this for chapatis, but this tastes so much better with ghee rice or vegetable fried rice. I made this with vegetable fried rice

    Mattar Paneer

    Ingredients Needed:

    Paneer - 1 cup
    Fresh Peas - 1 cup
    Onions - 1 medium
    Ginger garlic paste - 1/2 tsp
    Tomato puree - 1 cup
    Roasted cumin powder -1/2 tsp
    Red chili powder - 1 tsp
    Coriander powder - 1 tsp
    Turmeric powder a pinch
    Salt to taste
    Oil - 1 tsp
    Garam Masala - 1/4 tsp
    Coriander leaves handful.

    How to make Mattar Paneer

    Wash and keep the peas aside.

    If you are using store bought paneer, stir in a tsp of ghee and soak in hot water.

    If you are using homemade paneer, you can simply cut into cubes and saute them in ghee.

    Heat a non stick pan with oil, saute finely chopped onions. When they start turning colour, add ginger garlic paste. Cook till the raw smell leaves.

    Now add the tomato puree, cook till the tomato is done. Add the spice powders and saute well. Add the fresh peas and saute well.

    Add a cup of water and bring to boil. Then add the roasted paneer and simmer for 5 - 7 mins.

    Finally just before switching off, add garam masala and coriander leaves.

    Serve it with Chapatis
