- 300 gms Green peas with shell
- Water to boil the peas
Take out the shell from green peas. Boil water in a saucepan. When it boils nicely add the green peas to this and boil for 1 minute.
After a minute immediately drain the water and put this in a bowl of ice-cold water. This is to stop the peas from cooking further.
Drain the water in less than a minute. Spread the peas in a kitchen towel. This is to remove the extra moisture.
After a few minutes, put them in a ziplock cover. Spread the peas on the cover and freeze the bag for 8 hours. Keep the bag horizontally in the freezer as shown in the picture.
Frozen peas are ready to use now. You can use it in any gravy or in rice too.
