Green peas masala

Green peas masala was always our childhood favourite dish. Papa used to get it from the most popular Woodlands restaurant every Saturday and Amma used to prepare her superhit vegetable Pulav.Yes, that used to be the Saturday tradition back then.Recently while browsing few blogs I found similar green peas masala in Jeyashri’s blog and I thought of trying it.The dish came out too good,very near to the restaurant style. I prepared Puri as a combination which complimented well .It also makes a great combination with chapathi and pulav.
