Soak the dry green peas for 8 hours or over night. Pressure cook this by adding little salt till 3 whistles.
Take out 1/4 cup of cooked peas and grind the rest of the peas into a smooth paste along with coriander leaves and green chilli.
In a pan add oil and add the ground green peas puree to this and saute in a low flame for a few minutes.
Add little water to this and add the red chilli powder, cumin powder, coriander powder , chaat masala and little salt.
Mix this well and let it come to nice boil . This will take 2-3 minutes. Switch off the flame.
Now let us arrange the masala puri chaat for serving.
Break the pani puris and put it on a bowl or plate.
Add the green peas masala puree to this. Add 3-4 tblsp of this masala.
Add 1-2 tsp of the green peas which we reserved after cooking the green peas.
Add the sweet chutney and green chutney .
Add the finely chopped onions and tomatoes.
Garnish with Sev and coriander leaves.
Note:
If you don’t have puris at home you can try with Papadis.
The original recipe which my friend told includes the addition of yogurt, but i didn’t add.
If adding yogurt,add a tblsp after adding the cooked whole green peas.
