how to soak chawli beans ?

We have used the smaller variety of chawli beans. To prepare chawli bean salad, pick and clean the black-eyed beans. Use 2 tablespoons chawli beans to get 1/4 cup soaked and drained chawli (cow pea / lobhia).
Combine chawli and enough water in a deep bowl.
Cover with a lid and keep aside to soak 3-4 hours or overnight.

This is what like the chawli beans look like after soaking.
Drain chawli well using a strainer.
Your soaked and drained chawli beans are ready.

pressure cooking chawli beans

In a pressure cooker put soaked and drained chawli (cow pea / lobhia).
Add salt to taste. We added 1/4 tsp salt.

Add water.
Pressure cook for 2 whistles.
Allow the steam to escape before opening the lid.
Drain water. Keep aside. Use the drained water to make a soup.

making boiled beetroot cubes

Firstly scrub and wash the beetroots. In India, red beets are highly popular and easily available but, fancy supermarkets do have other variants and you can use any type of beetroots like a candy cane, yellow beet or Crimson Globe, Crosby Egyptian and Early Wonder variety.

Transfer them in a pressure cooker.
Add enough water.
Pressure cook for 4 whistles. Allow the steam to release naturally and open the lid carefully.
Remove the beetroot and cool them slightly.
Peel off the boiled beetroots while they are still warm and discard the skin. You may end up with pink hands and pink stains so, make sure you use an apron and possibly gloves to prevent that. If you have a marble kitchen counter then be very careful while doing this procedure.

Place the beetroots on a chopping board and cut them into cubes. You can even cut them in slices or wedges if you like. Another way to cook beetroot is by roasting them. Compared to boiling it’s a slow process but, the end product is very delicious. For roasting the beetroots, place beets in foil-lined baking pan and top with prepared dressing. Bake for 25-30 minutes at 200°C or until tender.
