Instructions
 

Prepare the Vegetables

  • Cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. If using dried green peas, soak them overnight.

Pressure Cook the Kurma

  • In a pressure cooker, combine the potatoes, green peas, onion, ginger paste, garlic paste, mint leaves, coriander leaves, turmeric powder, chili powder, garam masala, salt, and water. Pressure cook for 5 whistles.

Simmer and Adjust

  • Once the pressure releases, carefully open the cooker. Mash the mixture slightly with a ladle for a slightly thicker consistency. Transfer the mixture to a pan and heat gently. Check the seasoning and consistency; add more water if needed.

Add Coconut Milk and Tempering

  • Stir in the coconut milk and simmer for 5 minutes. Heat the oil for tempering in a separate small pan. Add the mustard seeds and let them splutter. Add the curry leaves and dried red chilies. Pour the tempering over the kurma and mix well.

Serve Hot

  • Serve the Chappathi Kurma hot with chappathis or other Indian bread.
