3.Fry it nicely till it leaves oil and then add water according to consistency and then close lid and cook it for about 20-30 minutes(5-6 whistles).

4. Once steam escape, one can decorate with coriander and serve.If water consistency seems more, one can fry it more to reach consistency

Tip

Blanch the tomatoes: Boil water and add the tomatoes. After a few minutes the skin will peel off. Drain water and cool it. Remove the skin completely.

If the cooker evaporate too much water from rajma, dals or any curry item, one can always boil desired water and add in curry and give it to boil for 1-2 minutes and its done.
