PRESSURE COOKER PUNJABI RAJMA (INDIAN SPICED KIDNEY BEANS)



Pressure Cooker Punjabi Rajma (Indian Spiced Kidney Beans) image

Rajma is a classic dish from Northern India in which red kidney beans are cooked with onions, tomato, ginger and a host of heady spices until they're tender and fragrant. The classic version requires soaking the beans overnight followed by lengthy cooking. But when made in an electric pressure cooker, the whole thing can be ready in about an hour. If you think your beans are old (or if you can't remember when you bought them), the cookbook author Urvashi Pitre, who adapted this recipe for the Instant Pot, recommends soaking them in water for an hour before cooking.

Time 1h

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon peanut oil
1 1/2 cups diced onion (from 1 medium onion)
1 cup diced tomato (from 1 small to medium tomato)
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon garam masala
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon kosher salt, more as needed
1 cup dried red kidney beans
Cooked white rice, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Add oil to the pot of an electric pressure cooker. Stir in onion, tomato, ginger, garlic, cayenne, coriander, cumin, garam masala, turmeric and salt.
  • Place a trivet on top of onion mixture. In a medium metal heatproof bowl (one that will fit inside the pressure cooker), combine beans and 2 cups water. Cover with foil and place on trivet.
  • Cover and cook on high pressure for 30 minutes. Let pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then quick-release any remaining pressure.
  • Remove bowl and trivet from pressure cooker, remove foil, and lightly mash about half of the beans. Scrape into onion mixture, then set the pressure cooker's sauté function to high. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes to let the flavors meld. Taste and add more salt, if necessary. Serve with rice, if you like.

INSTANT POT® BORRACHO CRANBERRY BEANS



Instant Pot® Borracho Cranberry Beans image

No soaking is required for these beans so they can be done and on your table in no time. Don't let the beer scare you off. The alcohol cooks off so that the beans get 'drunk' and not you.
