Methi Paneer Masala


The other day when I went to the Indian store there were by=unches of fresh fenugreek leaves bunches. They were so fresh…I had to get them. And ofcourse once you get them you have to use them otherwise its just compost filler. So I made this methi paneer masala which was a super duper hit. Here is the recipe.

Methi Paneer Masala
Ingredients:
  1. 1 cup packed fresh fenugreek leaves
  2. About 250 gms paneer cubed
  3. 1 medium small onion chopped
  4. 1 large or 2 medium tomatoes chopped
  5. ½ cup milk
  6. ½ cup water
  7. 2 tablespoons oil
  8. 1 inch ginger + 2 large garlic pods
  9. ½ teaspoon each of salt, chilli powder, turmeric, cumin powder
  10. 1 teaspoon coriander powder


In a pan add 1 tablespoon oil and fry the paneer pieces till they become light brown. Drain and set aside. In the same pan add the onions and chopped ginger and garlic and fry till the onions start getting browned. Add the tomatoes and cook for 5 more minutes. Let it cool. Grind to a smooth paste.

In the same pan add the remaining oil and add the methi leaves and fyr for 5 minutes. Add the paste back to the pot and cook for 5 minutes. Add the paneer and milk and water with all the spices and mix well. Simmer for 10 minutes. Serve with naan
