CHARISHMA'S DELICIOUS PRESSURE COOKED BLACK-EYED PEAS (CHAULI)
My family absolutely loves this dish I created on July the 2nd'04 in my apartment in America. I served this with my own Cumin rice (recipe posted separately). Personally, I like this because of the minimum amount of oil (fat) I used to make this and for the fact that now, I am no longer afraid to use a pressure cooker!!! I know you will love it if you are looking for a nice Indian vegetarian side dish, go for this one! Don't forget to review it, so I know what you think of it!

BLACK-EYED PEA HUMMUS
Hummus is one of those crowd-pleasing dips that I love to serve as a healthy option. My recipe is Low Country-ified, of course, with black-eyed peas instead of the traditional chickpeas. I like to save a handful of black-eyed peas to garnish the top for a pretty presentation.
