About Restaurant Style Green Peas Masala
Restaurant style Green Peas Masala is a delicious side dish which can be paired with any kind of Indian bread as well as jeera rice or ghee rice. This is a very simple recipe though the list of ingredient is little long but most of the ingredients are easily available in our kitchen. The texture of the gravy is creamy, silky and smooth. I have used cashew paste and curd which give this kind of texture to the gravy. You can prepare this dish either with fresh green peas or with frozen peas.

Recipe Notes
If you are using frozen peas you can use them after blanching or just put a single whistle in pressure cooker.
You can also use fresh cream on top for garnishing purpose.
