Step 1: Make a paste of the peas, green chillies and ginger.

Step 2: Heat the oil in a pan and add the asafetida(hing).

Step 3: Fry the peas paste and mix in the salt. Keep aside.


Method to preparing peas parathas:

Step 1: Take one small ball of dough and roll a thick roti about 4-inch.

Step 2: Place the peas stuffing into middle of the roti.

Step 3: Cover this stuffing with ends of the roti.

Step 4: Press gently by hand and turn another side.

Step 5: Dust this ball and roll smoothly up to 5-inch parathas.

Method for frying Peas parathas:

Step 1: Heat thick flat pan and place the peas paratha on it.

Step 2: Cook for 1-minutes in low flame and flip.

Step 3: Turn for another side and heat on medium flame until golden brown patches on back side. Step 4: Drizzle some oil or ghee on top and flip.

    Thanks for your nice words my dear but you care to make smooth paste. Ok wait for your green paratha post.:))

  31. Hey Shankari,

    Thanks for your nice comment my dear. I have made green peas dhokla with besan flour but I use eno fruit salt. If you not like to use eno fruit then you can leave the besan flour and butter milk batter in sun light for more than 8 hours. If you get fragmentations in flour than you made nice dhokla without fruit salt. Also if you add puffer rice with besan flour then you get nice soft dhokla but I have not any single attempt with this method.

  36. Hello Anonymous,

    If green peas then not need to soak or boiled but if you have persevere green peas then let it be warm up to room temperature so it is grind very well. No need to add any thing for paste. If you add water or boiled then paste is like gravy and you not make enough dry paste for paratha. So you have no need to soaked or boiled for making parathas.

    I am married to a man who is not Indian himself but is in love with Indian lifestyle, Indian films to Indian food. I tried my version of Indian food (copying from cook books) but it never tasted right. Now thanks to you Dear Kajol and your step by step postings, my husband finally would be able to taste the real Indian kitchen.
    Big Fat Thank you
