Black Eyed-Peas |Instant Pot Pressure cooker Recipe

by Tatianna Yougottalove

This is an instant, nutritious and extra flavourful soup.
Black eyed-peas has always been linked to good luck and prosperity for 1500 years and it is also a food which is served and prepared during the new year in some traditions.
Today, I thought of making a simple and easy soup in a pressure cooker, which you can also make for the entire family.

As you can see in the video it was a quick prep and took less time for cooking.

The ingredients you’ll need:
Black-eyed beans
Onions
Garlic cloves
Bella mushrooms
Zucchini
Brussels sprouts
Tomato paste
Water
Spices:
Salt
Turmeric
Pepper

1¼ cups dry black-eyed beans, soaked over night and cooked.

If you have pressure cooker it can be done in 30 to 40 minutes, I used my new pressure cooker.

But if you don’t have then cook it in a pot, it will take a few hours, and I recommend to soak it over night for quicker cooking.
I’ve been doing that for years, works as well.

In instant pot saute all the vegetables until your liking, around 15 to 20 minutes:
4 onions, diced
5 garlic cloves, diced or minced
4 mini Bella mushrooms, diced
1 Zucchini, diced
6 Brussels sprouts, diced

Then add:
Cooked beans
1 tsp salt
2 tsp turmeric
¼ tsp pepper
Mix and continue to add:
10 cups of water
2 cans of tomato paste, I use organic ones
Mix again until there no leftovers of tomato paste lumps.

In a pressure cooker –
Press on the bottom of soup, cover with lid and put the timer for about 15 minute.

In a pot-Cook for around 30 – 40 minutes on low heat, the more time you cook the more it’s richer in flavour.
Hope you enjoyed the recipe !
