Notes

You could pressure cook the dried green peas earlier and could be stored in the refrigerator for a few days. And then you could use 1 cup of it to make the Bhurji.

This is an easy recipe and healthy as well. Easy to follow procedures that anyone could make.

Please watch the video if any doubts pop-up.
