Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Frozen green peas
- 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 2 medium, pureed Tomato
- 3 minced Garlic cloves
- 1 inch piece, minced Ginger
- 200 ml Coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Turmeric powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoons Cumin seeds
- 0.5 teaspoons Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh cilantro
Instructions
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat.
Add cumin seeds and let them sizzle for about 30 seconds until aromatic.
Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until golden brown, about 5-6 minutes.
Add minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for another 2 minutes until the raw smell disappears.
Stir in the tomato puree, and cook for 4-5 minutes until the oil begins to separate from the tomato mixture.
Add turmeric, coriander, and red chili powder. Mix well and cook for another minute to integrate the spices.
Add the green peas to the pan and combine well with the spice mixture.
Pour in the coconut milk and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Season with salt.
Reduce the heat to low and cover the pan. Allow to simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peas are cooked through and the curry has thickened.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
Serve hot with steamed rice or your choice of bread.
