Instructions
- Wash and soak kala chana in approx. 4 cups of water, for overnight. The kala chana will double in volume after soaking.
- Add soaked kala chana, and 4 cups of water to the pressure cooker. Close the cooker. As it starts steaming, turn down the heat to medium and cook for approx. 12 minutes. If your pressure cooker whistles then wait for 4-5 whistles.
- Turn off the heat and wait until all the steam has released before opening the pressure cooker. Once it is cooked drain out the water and keep aside. Let the chana be free from moisture.
