I watched lot of recipes that were more complex. Picked this one for its simplicity- however would try variations given the amount of time I have. (source - a Marathi coking show with Sanjeev Kappor as the guest chef)

4) 1 onion chopped
5) red chili powder
6) mango powder
7) Salt
8) Oil
9) Ginger
10) 1 garlic clove

Method:
1) Heat oil, fry onions, ginger. When done add chilli powder and mango powder to taste.
2) Now add Methi leaves and let cook for sometime till it is well roasted
3) Now add matar and let it cook for couple of more minutes
4) Add salt
5) Add milk or cream and let the mixture cook for 10 minutes on simmer
