Peas Usal:

This is a super yummy delicacy from a Dear Friend ,Atul Sikand….just loved it .Thank you.
The only change I made was added 2 tsp fine chopped garlic just before taking it off heat,and reduced the chillies!!

Ingredients:
400 Grams Shelled Frozen Peas.
1 Teaspoon Mustard Seeds.
1/2 Teaspoon Turmeric.
1/5 Teaspoon Hing.
4 Teaspoons Oil.
1 Teaspoon Lemon Juice or To Taste.
Green / Dried Chilies to taste
Salt.
1 Teaspoon Sugar.

Make Paste:
8 Green Chilies. (I used 4 chilles)
Green Dhania Chopped - Equal volume as Coconut.
1/2 Coconut.
2 Teaspoons Poppy Seeds.
2Teaspoon Jeera.

Chopped Green Dhania For Garnish
Grated Coconut For Garnish.

Heat oil , splutter mustard seeds , add hing and chilies , add peas , haldi , sugar and salt.Cook covered 5 minutes on low heat , then add the paste and lemon juice, gently mix , cook another 3-4 minutes . I took off the heat , mixed in some grated coconut and dhania leaves and chopped garlic to infuse fresh flavors - left the dish covered for 5 minutes.Served garnished with more coconut and dhania leaves.Enjoyee
