NOTES:- USE THIS TIPS FOR MAKEING METHI MALAI MATAR 

1 - If using fresh cream or malai: Refrigerate about ¼ cup of clotted cream or malai first.Then whip it till it becomes smooth . Don’t add warm malai or clotted cream straightaway from the milk as this won’t give you a good creamy texture gravy. I used packaged fresh cream but you can get the same results with fresh malai. You donot need to whip or beat the cream if you are using packaged cream.

2 - If the Methi  leaves are too bitter : Chop the Methi leaves and take them in a bowl. Sprinkle some salt and mix very well. Keep aside for 10 to 15 minutes. Then squeeze the methi leaves in your palms. The bitter juices go away this way.

3 - Green Peas: You can add any fresh mutter or frozen Safal mutter. Make insure to boil the green peas before you add to the gravy.
