Green peas curry is a flavorful accompaniment for Roti or Kulchas. This green peas curry has a strong indian spice flavor and has a spicy kick to go along with rotis. I have given the spiciness both with red chilli powder and green chilli. Ginger adds an extra hot flavor to the green pas curry
Lots of variations are available to the green peas curry. This green pas curry recipe uses very simple spices available at home. If you prefer, add sautéed fine chopped onions and fine chopped tomatoes to the green peas curry. I made the green peas curry simple as i wanted a No onion-No Garlic version.
