Procedure
Bring the water to a boil in a pot. Add barley, cover, reduce heat and cook at a gentle simmer for about 35-40 minutes until grain is tender. Heat ghee in a pan until it is clear. Add the whole cumin and stir briefly to release aroma. Add peas and ginger and cook covered for 3-4 minutes. Fold the peas and salt into the barley and stir to mix well. Garnish with the fresh cilantro. Enjoy it warm.
