Atar Allecha is a spiced green pea puree.
Soak peas for one hour. Cook for ½ hour. Drain. Mash. Set aside.
In dry pan over moderate low heat, stir fry the onion and garlic for 2 mins. Add oil and stir fry one minute more.
Add the mashed peas, tumeric, salt, and chili. Mix well. Add the water and cook 3-4 mins longer to reduce the mixture to a thick, green, well spiced puree.
Serve with warm Injeera.
