Switch off the flame after the first whistle and wait until its pressure releases. Drain out the boiled peas from the pressure cooker. Separate the extra water from it using a strainer. Spread a cotton cloth over the tray and spread boiled peas over it.
Place it beneath the fan for an hour to dry and they have dried after an hour. Preheat oil to fry the peas. The highly heated oil is required to fry it. Add some peas to it using a strainer to fry and dip it in the heated oil. The flame should be high.
If they appear brown and there is a sizzling sound while bouncing it then they have fried. Drain out the fried peas and fry all the peas likewise.

Sometimes, the peas burst so at that point leave it in the oil and stand away.
