Uma Aunty's Green Peas curry

I have learnt how to cook most of the dishes from my Mother-In-Law,as I could't cook at all when I got married and lived with them  for the first few months.My MIL not only taught me the techniques of cooking but also gifted her precious cookery book to me.This dish actually comes from her friend 'Uma Aunty' and we started addressing this dish as 'Uma Aunty's peas curry'.This one is for my MIL who still is a great cook!!!!
