Cinnamon-1/2”
Green chillies-3,slit into two
Green peas- 1 cup
Carrot-1 diced
Cauliflower-cut into small florets(1 cup)
Potato-2 diced

Method:

  2. Boil green peas,potato and carrot together in the cooker and keep it aside.
  3. Heat 2 tbsp ghee in a pan and fry onion until pinkish in color.
  4. Add masala and fry until raw smell disappears.
  5. Add tomato and fry for few more minutes.
  6. Add boiled green peas,salt to taste and cauliflower florets and cook for 10 -15 minutes.
  7. Relish with puri or chapathi.



My notes:

  • If you want the cauliflower to be cooked until soft you may cook separate and add.
  • We like it just cooked that is little crisp so we add it along with the green peas as it cooks fast.
  • You may or may not add ghee while frying the ingredients for the paste.
  • Wash the coriander leaves thoroughly.
  • Slit the green chillies when you fry ,if you add directly without slitting, it will splutter jump out and is dangerous.
