2 large potatoes
1 medium onion (chopped)
1/2 teaspoon yellow split peas
1/2 teaspoon mustard seed
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1-2 green chili
1 tablespoon oil
1/2 cup Green Peas

Method:

1. Separately soak rice and urad dal at least 6 hour or overnight in water.
2. Grind this to paste in a heavy duty grinder. ( If you live overseas then be sure to use a heavy duty grinder otherwise you may burn your food processor ) as this paste is very stick and heavy on the blades of the grinder.
3. You will need to add some salt and water as desired to make a batter while grinding..
4. Now leave this mixture at room temperature for a night so that fermentation can occur.
