Looks like a good recipe. I had a suggestion, all your measurements are in cups are teaspoons, but your potatoes are grams. So takes a little while to do an alternative measure. Why not just make it a cup measurement as well.
You have a nice site with nice recipes. Looks lie you are south indian 🙂

Archana, welcome to SpicyTasty and thanks for stopping by! Coming from you, I take it as a great compliment. 🙂 Using cups as a uniform measure is a great suggestion. I will start doing that and change the ones I already have as I cook them next time.
And yes, I am south Indian as you can tell from most of my recipes.
hi,
Did it a little different way than yours…
1. Fry some cashew nuts and keep them aside
2. Fry garam masala (clove, cinnamon, bay leaf etc… you know) + cummin seeds
3. Add chopped onions , chillies, garlic pieces, tomatoes + turmeric + some salt
4. Add potatoes and cook them about 50 %
5. Add mutter and again cook so that potatoes are well done
6. Add coriander powder , cummin powder, (+ garam masala)
7. Add water to make a nice sauce
8. Add Paneer + some whipped cream
9. Finally add Kasoori methi
Let me know how it turned out.
What about the Cashew nuts which is fried and kept aside
Hey! I love your site. I use your recipes all the time for family and guests. Right now I’m making Aloo Mutter in a crock pot (slow cooker) for the first time. I sauteed the ingredients in a pan first, then I put them in the pot to cook for a few hours.
