Instruction

  • I used homemade frozen peas, so used directly. If using fresh peas, pressure cook it for 1 whistle and then use it. Then measure and keep all the ingredients by side.
  • Chop onion, tomato and coconut pieces roughly for grinding.
  • Pour 2 tsp of oil in a pan, and add the ingredients listed in the table 'For grinding'. Saute everything till the raw smell leaves. Allow it to cool down.
  • Transfer it to a mixer and grind it to a smooth paste, by adding little water (1/2 cup).
  • Heat oil in a pan and temper with the ingredients given in the table 'To temper'. Then pour the grounded onion - tomato paste. Now add turmeric powder, chilli powder and garam masala powder.
  • Add required salt and mix everything well. Cook covered for 5 to 6 minutes in low flame.
  • Once the oil separates, add green peas and little sugar. Just give a boil for another 2 minutes, till the gravy and peas blend well. Switch off the flame and garnish with coriander leaves. Serve green peas kurma recipe with instant ragi dosa.
