METHI MATAR MALAI

Ingredients :

Methi leaves washed and chopped fine – 3 cups

Frozen peas – 1 and ½ cups

Milk – 1 cup

Salt to taste

Garam masala – 1 tbsp

To grind into a paste :

Onion – 1

Ginger – 1”

Green chillies – 3

Cashew nuts – ½ cup

Jeera – 1 tsp

Method :

1)     Grind all ingredients for the paste in a mixie to a fine paste without adding much water

2)     In a pan take oil and add the paste, sauté for 5-7 mins till it leaves an aroma (note that this should be done on a sim flame and should not be burnt)

3)     Add the methi leaves, salt and water and cook for 5 mins

4)     Add garam masala, frozen peas and milk and cook till well blended

Note :

The original recipe had cream to be added but I added milk instead as cream tends to make the veggie heavy
