00:00Well, today let me show you quite an unusual seasonal recipe.

00:03A recipe with fresh Garden Peas.

00:06Well, quite a lost recipe at that.

00:08Let's revive it today.

00:09Matar Ka Halwa.

00:11Let's begin.

00:12Well, here you have fresh Garden Peas.

00:14All you need to do is, snip the end.

00:19String it like so.

00:21And open it up.

00:24Just like so.

00:27Push all of this out.

00:31And similarly, get all your Garden Peas in a bowl like so.

00:37Let's keep this aside.

00:38And move on to crushing the Peas.

00:40I'm going to transfer this straight into the jar.

00:45We crush this into a fine paste.

00:51Let's turn the flame on and add in a little bit of Ghee.

00:54Time to add in Cashew Nuts.

00:57And sauté these till they're golden brown in colour.

01:00Roughly cut Almonds.

01:03Let's sauté this on medium flame.

01:05And move this aside.

01:13In the same Kadhai, let's add in the remaining Ghee.

01:16And immediately to this, let's add in the Green Pea Pulp.

01:20This case, remember the fact that the Green Peas were raw.

01:25Let's stir this well.

01:26And ensure this cooks perfectly well.

01:29At this stage, the Peas that are looking pasty,

01:32will eventually become slightly grittier.

01:38The Green Peas have cooked perfectly well.

01:40If you see, the Ghee is now just kind of beginning to release

01:44from the sides of the pan.

01:45This is the time when we add in Crumbled Cottage Cheese.

01:49Which of course is going to give it that bounce while eating.

01:54That sponginess, that bounce, that mouthfeel.

01:57Is going to be very unique and very different.

01:59Let's also sauté this on medium flame.

02:02Like so.

02:03Of course while doing all of this, you can keep breaking the grits.

02:06And that's a complete personal choice.

02:08Well by all means, if you want to keep this recipe usual,

02:11you can add in Milk, you can add in Khoya, Mawa.

02:14Choice is completely yours, but I for a change,

02:16prefer Cottage Cheese or Paneer in this recipe.

02:20Time to add in Sugar.

02:21Well once the Sugar starts melting, you'll see that this entire mixture

02:25just kind of begins to liquefy.

02:27And that's exactly how we want it to.

02:30Just keep mixing this, ensure that the Sugar does not caramelise.

02:33Because that eventually will change the colour of this Halwa.

02:38Time to add in Green Cardamom.

02:41Of course in its powdered form.

02:44Half of the Dry Fruits, like so.

02:47And give this one final mix.

02:48With this, your Matar Halwa or Green Peas Halwa

02:51is done and ready.

02:52Well absolutely timely because Green Peas are all across the vegetable markets.

02:56In case, you wish to make this once the season kind of subsides,

03:00do not worry, frozen Peas, always to the rescue.

03:03Bye for now.
