Ingredients

  • 300 gms Green peas with shell
  • Water to boil the peas

Instructions

  • 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.
