  • Add 2 whole red chilli and ½ tsp salt—dry roast on low flame.
  • Add everything to a grinding jar and grind to make the Kachori Masala. Keep it aside.
  • Heat 1 tbsp oil in a Pan. Add 1.5 cups of Fresh Peas. Cook for 3-4 minutes on medium flame.
  • Add it to a grinding jar and grind it. Keep the Peas mixture aside.
