Easy Simple Quick Peas Pulav

This recipe is very easy and quick. You would experience one of these days where you would want to prepare something good, with little time in hand yet delicious. This is peas pulav. Taste good when you have fresh green peas right off the pods. I understand it;s seasonal in India, also in Southern part of the country you wouldn't find everyday in the super market. I usually buy around a kg when I see them, remove peas from pods, wash and freeze them.
