To cook the peas properly, add water to the bottom of a pressure cooker, place a plate inside, and then set a bowl of peas on top of the plate so they steam without direct water contact. Close the lid and cook until about 4 whistles before draining any collected water and slightly mashing or grinding them.
Add cold water and salt to wheat flour, mix well, and finally add a spoonful of oil to spread over the dough. Instead of kneading it vigorously, cover the dough properly and let it rest for about half an hour to make it soft and easy to roll.
Make sure both the chapati dough ball and the pea mixture ball are of the same size. This guarantees that the filling spreads evenly when you gently roll it out, preventing the stuffing from coming out.
