Istruzioni

1. Cook rice according to package instructions, set aside on warm.

2. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions, garlic, and ginger; sauté 5-7 minutes until softened.

3. Add cardamom, coriander, turmeric, cumin, red pepper flakes, and cinnamon; sauté 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

4. Add potatoes and water; cover and simmer for 8-10 minutes.

5. Add green beans and bell peppers; simmer uncovered for 3-5 minutes, until all vegetables are tender.

6. Add paneer (or queso fresco). Bring the heat down to avoid curdling.

7. When cooled slightly, add cream, yogurt, salt, and garam masala. Add the extra water if necessary to loosen it up.

8. Season with salt and pepper, serve over rice, and garnish with cilantro.

Note

From Rachel: This may seem like too many ingredients, but most are spices that can be pre-measured and dumped together. This isn't the fastest recipe, but it isn't difficult and is really yummy and a fun change for the taste buds. The original recipe said paneer (or queso fresco) is optional—blasphemy. ALWAYS add cheese if suggested! I also prefer more red pepper flakes than it calls for.
