Heat water in a pot and add salt to it. When it comes to a boil, add the peas. Cook until the peas have softened. Add the palak leaves, and boil for just 20 seconds more, then immediately transfer it into a bowl of cold water. When it cools down, squeeze out the water and transfer it to a mixer jar. Blend into a smooth paste.
