Recipe View 2 mins Stir in the chopped fresh cilantro. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, then remove from heat. Serve hot with naan, puris, rotis, or plain rice.

For a richer flavor, consider using ghee (clarified butter) instead of vegetable oil.
Adjust the amount of paprika to control the level of spiciness. For a milder dish, reduce the paprika, or for a spicier dish, add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
Fresh peas can be used in place of frozen peas; simply adjust the cooking time accordingly.
Garnish with an extra sprig of cilantro for added freshness.
This dish tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to develop.
