Paneer with Peas

This is a yummy paneer recipe with lots of flavor including cumin seeds, ginger and cilantro. I paired it with peas which is a very popular combination- my favorite…

• 3 tablespoons extra light olive oil
• 2 teaspoons cumin seeds
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 2 inches ginger, grated
• ¼ cup cilantro stems, chopped
• 1 serrano chili, chopped
• 1 cup tomato sauce
• 1 pack paneer, grated
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 2 teaspoons coriander powder
• ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 3 cups petite frozen peas
• ½ cup cilantro, chopped
• ½ cup dill, chopped

Heat a large saucepan with the oil. Add the cumin seeds and cook for 30 seconds on medium heat. Add the onion, ginger, cilantro stems and serano. Saute on medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomato sauce and sauté for another 2 to 3 minutes. Add the paneer, salt, coriander, cayenne and peas. Saute on medium heat for 5 to 6 minutes. Cover on low for another 5 minutes. Check for seasonings and add the cilantro and dill. Mix well and serve.
