Instructions

Methi Matar Malai is a rich North Indian curry. A delicious mix of slightly bitter methi (fenugreek) leaves, the mild sweetness of matar (green peas) and the decadence of malai (cream). This is not a meal for the faint-hearted.

Add Aromatics and Sauté
Add refined oil and jeera to The Upliance jar. The device will sauté them for a moment. Then add green chilli, garlic, onion, and ginger. The Upliance will cut these aromatics at low heat for 10 seconds, then sauté them at high heat for 7 minutes until golden.
The device will now cook Methi
Add processed methi to The Upliance jar. The device will cook the methi with the aromatics at low heat for 7 seconds, then continue cooking at high heat for 3 minutes, ensuring it's well-integrated and softened.
Repeat the above for the gravy
Add sugar, salt, garam masala, frozen peas, cream, and water to The Upliance jar. The Upliance will cook the gravy, starting at low heat for 10 seconds, then moving to high heat for 2 minutes, and finally simmering at medium heat for 12 minutes with automatic stirring until thickened.
The dish is ready
The Methi Matar Malai is ready. Garnish with 2 tsp kasoori methi before serving this rich curry.
