    Frozen peas shak

    1 bowl frozen peas . Try not to use petit pois . Or use mixture of petit pois and garden peas.
    You could also use frozen mix veg or peas and sweetcorn mix
    One medium tomato finely chopped.
    2 teaspoons oil
    1 teaspoon passatta. Freeze the rest thinly  in ice cube tray and put in zip lock for future use
    Salt, masalas - mustard seeds, cumin seeds, turmeric , corriander/cumin mix powder, red chilli powder

    Defrost peas by putting in boiling water.
    Heat the oil in a pan. Once warm add a couple of cumin seeds to check oil is ready. Add a small pinch of mustard seeds. When they crackle add small pinch of cumin seeds . Add the chopped tomatoes.
    Allow the to tomatoes to cook till soft.
    Add the passatta. Add salt, tiny bit of turmeric, cumin/corriander powder ( about one teaspoon) , chilli powder to taste. Saute all this until the masals mix well with the tomatoes. Traditionally, the oil would separate from the tomatoes but since we are not being generous with oil, this may not happen.
    Add the drained  peas. Mix. Cover for 3/4 minutes , garnish with corriander if you wish and enjoy.
