We usually cook North Indian sabzis with the addition of onion and ginger garlic paste. I have posted no onion no garlic version of the paneer butter masala and paneer makhani recipe in Jeyashris kitchen. Usually, during the Mahalayam and Navaratri time, I post no onion no garlic recipes on the website. This year also planned a few and today sharing the creamy tasty, Matar paneer recipe. Paneer and green peas cooked in tomato-based gravy pair well with roti, naan, and jeera rice. Even we can have this with pulaos too. I used frozen peas for making this matar paneer, if you are using fresh peas, cook this first and then add to the gravy. Also, check out our popular No onion garlic side dish for chapati
