One day I would have forgot to add salt to the curry or added more spice other day. Many such kitchen disaster happens. Now a days I started cutting vegetable previous night. Soak tamarind and cook Dal; well I do most of the cooking previous night. It helps a lot for my relaxed (mind voice,  sure about this word?) morning.

Still there are days when I couldn't make arrangements previous night. Recently one such day came, I opened the fridge and stood clueless seeing the veggies.  Suddenly I heared a knock from my freezer. Frozen peas offered to help me.

I don't know how I forgot my frozen peas sundal.  At times I prove, I am a big fan of Actor Surya, he is a famous Tamil actor. In one movie he will have short term memory loss, in my home almost many days I will have that:-)

Being a salad fan, if I just boil peas and give him with salt and pepper he will be happy to eat. My taste bud can't accept it. I decided to add onion and ginger garlic paste, this trio combo always works for me. With some spices the Green peas Curry was ready in no time. 

Packed his lunch. I started cooking regularly and thought of taking pictures for blog. I got a call from hubby, I loved the green peas curry you gave today, pack it often:-) Protein and fibre rich healthy Green  peas Curry started occupying a special places in my kitchen.
