Notes
While using the Green Chilies, use your discretion as per your take on the heat.
Once you put the dish to simmer, note that there is ample amount of water in the pan. As poppy paste has a tendency to stick at the bottom of the dish and burn. Ample amount of water would avoid that.
In case you do not have Mustard Powder with you, you can grind 1/2 tsp of Mustard Seeds with the Poppy Seeds to make a smooth paste for this recipe.
