Paneer is a fresh cheese with plenty of texture and protein. In this traditional northern Indian dish, Paneer is combined with green peas in a spicy tomato-ginger sauce.

For variety, try adding some finely minced fresh cilantro and a little freshly ground black pepper to the mixture before cubing and frying.
