Aloo/Potato is liked by almost all age group people. Peas though it is a seasonal pod, you get peas in almost all the months of the year. You can use frozen peas too. This particular curry is a combination of Aloo/potato and Peas.
It is a spicy curry and I have used peas, potatoes, green chilly,pepper and other spices.
No onion or garlic is used in this curry. It goes well with almost all main dishes like chapatis, poori, idli, dosa, Naan, any type of roti even plain rice.
Lets see the recipe now:

Method :
1. Wash and remove the skin of potatoes and cut into small. Wash coriander leaves, ginger and keep it aside. Wash tomatoes and cut into pieces. Wash green chilly and keep it aside.
2. Keep a pan and add a spoon of oil. Heat and put jeera.
3. Let it fry in oil. Add peas and cut tomatoes. Fry it nicely. Add a pinch of turmeric powder.

9. Serve with any main dish you have prepared.
Note :
Adding more spice is optional. (You can add 2 cloves, a small piece of cinnamon while grinding). I used milk powder. Mixed with 1/4 cup of water and prepared milk. You can use fresh milk. Adding coconut is optional. (No coconut). Use of onions and garlic is optional. (Surely it adds to the taste for onion - garlic lovers). You can use roasted chenna (hurikadale/pottu kadale) instead of cashew nuts. (Optional). I have used pressure cooker to cook. (Cooks faster).
Time : 30 minutes
