About Paneer matar

Paneer Matar is a classic dish from North Indian cuisine, combining soft cubes of paneer (a fresh, Indian cottage cheese) with tender green peas in a flavorful tomato-based gravy. Typically seasoned with a mix of spices like turmeric, cumin, coriander, and garam masala, this dish is rich in taste and aroma. Paneer provides a good source of protein and calcium, while green peas contribute fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants, making it a nutritious choice for vegetarians. However, Paneer Matar can be higher in calories and fat, especially when made with cream or ghee. Balancing portion sizes and opting for lighter cooking methods can make it a healthier option. Often enjoyed with roti, naan, or rice, Paneer Matar is a vibrant and satisfying dish, celebrating the rich culinary heritage of India.
