Ingredients

  • 10 puris
  • 1 tablespoon sweet chutney
  • 1 tablespoon green chutney
  • 1/2 cup dry green peas soak overnight and pressure cook it
  • 1/2 cup toor dal pressure cook till soft with a pinch of turmeric
  • 1/4 cup sev
  • 2 tablespoon carrot grated
  • 3 tablespoon onion finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon coriander leaves finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon coconut
  • 3/4 teaspoon red chilli powder
  • salt to taste

Dry Spices

  • 2 cloves
  • 1/2 inch piece cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon coriander seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1/8 teaspoon peppercorns
  • very small piece nutmeg
  • 1/2 marathi moggu or star anise

Instructions

  • Dry roast all the spices for few minutes till nice aroma comes. Grind it along with coconut and red chili powder to a fine paste.
  • Pressure cook peas for 3 whistles or until soft, Pressure cook toor dal for 4 whistles with immersing level of water, mash it up so that it is fine. Transfer dal to a heavy bottomed container and heat it up.
  • Add coconut paste to it and allow it to boil for a good 5 minutes (add water if it is too thick). Add required salt. Then transfer the cooked peas and give a quick stir.
  • Simmer and allow it to boil and thicken to the desired consistency. The gravy should not be too thick or too thin. It should be semi liquid. Now in the serving plate take 5 -6 puris and crush them.
  • Add peas masala, then drizzle sweet and green chutney. Add onions, carrot and sev as topping. Finally garnish with coriander leaves.
  • Once assembled serve immediately when the gravy is still hot and the puris are crispy.

Notes

  • I didn't have marathi moggu so used star anise instead though it is not the actual equivalent.
  • Do not use fresh peas. Use only dried peas for this gravy.
  • The above quantity is for making 2 plates. Adding sweet and green chutney is purely optional but I recommend adding them for the extra flavor.
  • I love sweet chutney in masala puris so go for extra helping.
  • The toppings can be adjusted as per your taste. Make sure to serve while the gravy is still hot to enjoy the taste.
  • I used homemade puris, you can use store bought ones too.
