Winter is almost over and with it ends the season of fresh Peas. Decided to make an Upkari /Stir fry which goes well with Dal, Rice or even with Roti. Personally, I like to make a meal of it!

Add the mustard and after it splutters drop in the green chillies and Hing. Toss. Add the cooked green peas and adjust salt. Simmer gently till all the water is absorbed. Garnish with grated coconut. Heat for a couple of minutes and serve hot.
