Sauté for 1 min and then add the remaining spices.

Sauté for 1-2 minutes before adding the onion, garlic, and ginger.

Cook until the onion is translucent before adding the tomatoes and salt.

Let the mixture cook until it has reduced to a paste-like consistency.

Add the water and beans and close the lid.

Set to Pressure Cook for 5 min and when done, let the pressure naturally release for at least 20 minutes before manually releasing any remaining pressure.
