Peas saute

-

This recipe I have here is a quick one.

It requires :
Frozen peas - 2 cups (keep outside to thaw)
Salt - 1/4 tsp
Pepper - 1/4 tsp
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
Chilli powder - 1/4 tsp
Olive oil - 1 Tbsp

Wash the peas and steam it. Alternatively, you can also microwave with a a little water for a few minutes. Buts it always better to steam because then the colour and vitamins are retained. Once its a little cooked, warm a pan and add the oil. Add the peas, toss around in the oil and then add the spices. Stir for a few minutes so that the spices coat the peas. This dish tastes swell with hot white rice.

Its raining cats and dogs here. The small streets and pot-holes are filled with muddy water. The weather is gloomy and dull. With so little sunlight, I would rather prefer to sleep in. But my daughter needs to attend online classes. I have cut fruits in my fridge. And lazy me thinks "Smoothie"! The Kokeshi doll is called Hohemi (meaning Smile). Its made from Mizuki wood and handpainted in Japan. She is created by Masai Fujikawa, recepient of the Prime Minister's award. She has plum flowers on her kimono and a red top knot. The head and trunk are made separately, and these dolls have no hands or feet. My husband brought her as a souvenir when he travelled to Tokyo for work. Ingredients for the smoothie are : Papaya - peeled, and diced Apple - peeled, and diced Ginger - 1/2 inch, grated Yogurt - 1/2 cup Blend!
