Jeeve Battani Ambat(fresh Green peas curry)

An authentic Konkani dish Battani and mogge Ambat.  Green peas and Manglore cucumber is used here with coconut based gravy and finely chopped onion is fried for tadka(coconut oil if used for tadka gives lovely aroma and taste).  This is my hubby’s favourite and it’s a very good combo with rice.

Grated coconut                          -- 1 cup
Red chilly                                     --  10 to 12

Shallots                                         --  10 to 12
Oil for seasoning                         --   2 to 3 tsp
