Method,
First grind pudina, coconut, ginger garlic paste and green chillies as a paste in a mixie. Now heat the oil and ghee and add jeera to it (by using ghee it gives a nice flavour with jeera). Then add finely chopped onions until it turns light golden brown. Now the the pudina paste to it and cook it in low flame until the raw spell goes off. Then add the pressure cooked peas (if it is the dry green peas) and cook it by adding salt to taste.

This pudina mixture now can be mixed with precooked rice (rice should be cooked 3/4 and should not be sticky) and pressure cook for 1 minute. Now the rice is ready for packing.
