This is a simple tangy gravy that goes well with rice and is a dish that makes me pretty nostalgic. There is this feeling of joy when you make something and it tastes exactly the way you tasted it as a kid right? The peas in this gravy is the dry variety that was soaked and cooked. Fresh peas are normally sweet and we do not usually make gravies with it.

Potatoes and peas combo is always a big hit be it in rice, gravy or side dish. These tangy gravies last a few days in the fridge if handled properly. Also, I normally cook a big batch of legumes like peas, garbanzo, etc., and freeze them. This way I do not have to worry about soaking and cooking them right on the day I need it. This gravy goes well with rice, idli, dosai, upma, etc. Off to the recipe.

My Notes
Use mustard seeds instead of vadagam.
