Feijao With Tadka And Smoked Provolone Pressure Cooker Recipe
Ingredients
SERVES 6 – Cooker: 5- to 7-quart – Time: 7 minutes at HIGH pressure
Serve this with rice or roti
- 2 cups dried black beans, soaked and drained
- 6 cups water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- sea salt (optional)
- 3 tablespoons ghee or olive oil
- 1 tablespoon sweet paprika
- 3 (2-finger) pinches asafoetida powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 to 1½ teaspoons turmeric
- 3 to 4 ripe tomatoes, to taste, seeded and chopped
- ¼ to ½ cup cubed smoked provolone cheese per serving
- fresh cilantro leaves, for serving
Method
- Place the drained soaked beans in a 5- to 7-quart pressure cooker
- Add the water and oil
- Close and lock the lid
- Set the burner heat to high
- When the cooker reaches HIGH pressure, reduce the burner heat as low as you can and still maintain HIGH pressure
- Set a timer to cook for 7 minutes
- Remove the pot from the heat
- Open the cooker with the Natural Release method; let stand for 15 minutes
- Be careful of the steam as you remove the lid
- The beans should be soft and the water chocolaty brown
- If the beans are too hard, simmer for a few minutes on the stovetop or relock the cooker and bring back to pressure for a few minutes if very underdone
- If there is too much liquid for your taste, simmer the beans, uncovered, to evaporate some of it
- Set aside
- In a small skillet, warm the ghee over medium-high heat
- Add the paprika, asafoetida, cumin, and turmeric and cook a few seconds
- Add the tomatoes and cook for 10 minutes, cooking the mixture down to a gravy
- Pour the mixture into the beans and stir well to combine
- Top each serving with cheese and cilantro
- Keeps in an airtight container 4 days in the refrigerator or up to 4 months in the freezer (store the beans without the cheese)
