[TheSheenkay]

[asianlite6]

Hi Auntyji, can we add onions? thank you ji..

[suprmax]

that's actually my favorite dish when it comes to indian food...and samosas

[herbalwyze]

My all time FAVE recipe! cant wait to make it instead of buying it!

[pricofilipinaamerica]

Hell im a vegan, is there any difference in cooking with tofu instead of paneer?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@pricofilipinaamerica

you can use firm tofu for any dishes substituing paneer but not for making dessert.

[Dharmalotus21]

Namaste'.  This dish is my all time favorite. Thank you for sharing it here on YouTube.

[JadeJubeJube]

Namaste!

As my father was dying of cancer, this was one of his favorite meals and the last real meal his body could handle. I have such painfully beautiful memories of spooning out each mouth full, one for him one for me.....and it was such a blessing that in such pain he could enjoy good food and share it with me as a memory I will treasure as long as I live.

Thank you for reminding me of it and teaching me how to make it myself....I will make it to honor his memory and your skill.

[sssaagarwal]

Hello Aunty

This dish turned out gr8 for me after using ur recipe......

Though i added Heavy cream on it towards the end & it tasted even better....just wanted to share my add-ons with u!!

Thanks & keep posting!!!

[sisterdarkness1]

can use cottage cheese instead of paneer which is homemade ? its hard to buy in aus.. to time consuming to make all the time

[ArgoSG]

You dont like to use onions to make this gravy? Why not?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@ArgoSG

Personal preference

[26malini]

thank u so much manjula aunty for the great video!! and i really loved the way u fried the paneer.. it is a gr8 idea. i always try to fry the paneer and it breaks into pieces...i use the same brand (NANAK).but this time i will try this way of frying the paneer..:) Hope it wont break.you are a geniousthanks once again.

[bhavanisai]

Manjula ji , thank you for the recipe. I like your way of cooking.

[dearbear132]

i dont think so..... its must be so delecious bcoz water is more in that content ..

[vmarasan]

Which Paneer have you used Manjula ji? Looks good. The brand I buy breaks into pieces.

[Manjulaskitchen]

@vmarasan

I amke my own or I use Nanak Brand

[msamina786]

dear manjula ji..your dish looks great..all i want to know is that can we add sliced onion also after adding whole garam masala..please suggest..

[mlsdd]

You are great, I love your teaching and by the way, the music on the background is lovely too!

[1tontomato]

Instead of adding water, I would add heavy cream without using corn starch. Otherwise, perfect.

[SofiaVictoria77]

[shaziaazmarin]

Mam who is plying that music it is really wonderful!

I love that music and your food!

[xyz992005]

its the song from DDLJ

[akshi87]

do v need to put sugar??

wont it become sweet???

[rastogiatul]

Sugar helps counter the acidity of tomatos otherwise the dish could be sour

[scott277]

Sugar can help balance out the acidic flavor of the tomatoes.

[0157jo]

hi, love your recipes. why dont you normally fry turmeric, chili powder and dhania powder? thanks

[pooja4utube]

thanks 4 posting this receipe; i didnt know that its this easy 2 make this dish....thanx

[Simply4evergmail]

mam please explain why did u add sugar to the dish?

[ritachain]

Manjula, you really are patient & should have a program of your own !

Thanks for sharing.

[brianlara123]

what is the cream and where do i get it?

[lorealv]

if you follow your recipe to make homeade paneer, do you still have to fry the paneer for this recipe?

[Manjulaskitchen]

store baught paneer is very firm so you do not have to fry but home made paneer is not that firm so you must fry home made paneer.

[vthirugnanam]

Thank you.

[chutneyface]

that looks amazing, thank you for sharing.

[0hhelleur]

oh my goodness that looks dellliiicious. thankyou!

[pearlypetals]

Thanks again Manjula! I Love your videos!you are a great teacher and I am your fan!!!!!

[pearlypetals]

Thank you very much. it is very kind of you being here teaching us that wonderful Indu coocking. wish you all the best..

[bcl1980]

thank you very much!

there is a place that uses cottage cheese along with paneer in theirs. it is very thick and creamy.. and delicious! have you heard of using that before? i tried but cannot make it the same. i think they add cream to it.

[Manjulaskitchen]

If you like creamy gravy few minutes before turning off the heat add some cream.

[kathlene25]

WoW, Great recipe. Thank you so much, prepairing nice Indian food is a lot of work but you do it so well, I want try.

[SlaveOfthemostjust]

hello manjula... it looka very nice, thank u.. can i use home made paneer instead? and also, will it still come out nice if i fry some onion and garlic with the spices? thanks

[Manjulaskitchen]

hello, yes home made paneer will taste great and yes you can add onion anf garlic.

[SlaveOfthemostjust]

thank u

[antiflag1980]

Thank you.

[shanks414]

Thank you very much!

[SoulQuest7]

I was surprised by the addition of corn starch-- I've never used that in mutter paneer. Also, I use a TON of butter in it. As always, I enjoy watching Manjula cook!

[nsharish20]

What is this green paper? Is it like green chilli?

[shaunak84]

yeah it's a typo. She meant pepper, as in spicy green chili. How spicy is up to you, just don't use anaheim :P

[shabna90]

she meant green pepper...yes its the green chilli

[suemazy]

This dish is fantastic! It is so much better than anything I have ever eaten at an Indian restaurant. I'm very happy to be able to make it at home. Thank you very much!

[cristicc1]

Paneer cheese is easy to make. Get 4 pints of full cream milk and warm it up to nearly hot (not boiling) add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice (or one tblesoon of vinegar) and observe it curdling. Turn off the heat. Allow to cool. Drape a clean tea towel over a large bowl and drain. Tie up the tea towel and twist to compress the curd. Allow to set for a couple of hours. Then it's ready!

[salihkerem]

hi i am from turkey 4 pints milk= 1 litre of milk.thank you.

[Marcoosianism]

No, 1 pint is 2 cups, and 1 litre is about 4 cups.

So 4 pints is 8 cups which is about 2 litres.

[jagwio]

That is interesting... my girlfriend let it hang overnight and then pressed it for a few hours. We think it was not pressed with enough weight because it was too wet. You twist it which must get out a lot more of the whey!

[bo12b]

thank you so much for sharing all d recipes. btw what is mango powder? how does it taste?

[stephsh69]

it's actually powdered mango! it smells just like the fruit. the only place i could find it was at the Indian grocers... good luck!

[cristicc1]

If you go to any Indian grocer you'll find it's referred to as AMCHOOR or sometimes AMCHUR instead of Mango Powder. Great stuff!

[DadiJaan14]

Sometimes also called 'khatai'

It gives a zesti taste to the food. Its nice. I use it in all my recipes! - Dadi Jaan

[LilaSakura]

These recipes always turn out great! I was always intimidated to attempt Indian cuisine. Thank you! Keep on keeping on Please!!!

[flowersblow]

wat is peprica? is it red chilly powder!

[vivianviverito]

"Paprika" is not hot like red chile powder. It is made from ground sweet red peppers, not hot red peppers. Easy to find in any supermarket.

[babyrakes]

Thank you so much for this video

[willowsidhe]

Thanks again Manjula! I Love your videos!

[lockme5]

do you have a recipe for chatt?

[abeypagal]

looks very tasty but very much similar to paneer butter masala only dahi is excluded. thanks

[semiafrom118]

Aunty, this was great, do you have a recipe for paneer and palak? or saag?

[enverajanovic]

I have seen many vegetarian chefs but you are by far the best.god bless Manjula mata.

[zazabrothers]

manjulaji

i would like to add fresh cream to it ... plz do telll when and how to add fresh cream to this recipe..

[Manjulaskitchen]

Fresh cream you can add just after you have add mattar and paneer.

[nkaralee]

Dear Manjula..your video's are great and easy to follow. Thank you so much. I'll be looking at all of your videos and taking notes and learn as I go along. Would you be able to also put a Shahi Paneer recipe. Thats my favourite. Thank you

[trupkar]

That is the best recipe I have come across so far...using no onions or garlic...thanks,Manjulaji.
