recipes using white peas is not a common in my place here but i frequently end up preparing ragda recipe for most of chaat recipes. in my previously shared masala puri recipe, i have used the same curry but it had more spices and flavours compared to this. the main difference is the usage of fry spices like cinnamon, pepper and clove (laung) in masala puri ragda. whereas this curry for pani puri, or ragda patties is subtle and less spicy, yet effective. having said that, i personally prefer the masala puri ragda, since it has more flavour to offer and makes a lip-smacking chaat recipe.

the ragda recipe is very simple and easy to prepare, yet some tips and suggestions for it. firstly, the white peas have to be soaked overnight for a minimum of 8 plus hours. there is no short-cut to it and pressure cooking for more whistles would not work. hence plan this recipe accordingly. secondly, once the white peas are pressure cooked, do not mash it completely. it should be random and mashing is done to only improve the consistency of gravy. lastly, the ragda can easily become thick once it is cooled down. hence, keep adding water and achieve the semi-thick consistency when reusing it.
