    I love beans + rice and and I love roasted peanuts or other nuts in pulao(spiced rice). This version uses black eyed peas and brown rice and is a mix of a few pulao styles across Indian cuisine. Add whichever spices you have(other cuisines blends work too!), and veggies of choice.

    Black eyed Peas (Lobia/Chawli/Raungi) are often ignored in favor of various chickpeas or split peas. But these beans are so smooth and soft and have their own fantastic flavor. Try them in curries, pizza(yes!), stir fry/hash and in this easy 1 Pot meal.

    Use Cajun blend, Berbere or Jamaican curry blend for non Indian flavor variation. Omit the nuts if you wish. Use a few tbsp sunflower seeds or dalia (split roasted chickpeas, you can find them at the Indian store or online). Serve with pita bread or garlic bread or papadums.

    Ingredients

    • 1/2 cup uncooked/dry black eyed peas
    • 2/3 cup brown basmati rice
    • 1 tsp oil
    • 1/3 tsp cumin seeds
    • 1/3 tsp mustard seeds
    • 3 cloves
    • 1/4 cup raw or roasted peanuts , or use cashews (or sunflower seeds or dalia(roasted chickpeas) for nutfree)
    • 1/2 onion chopped
    • 5 cloves of garlic chopped
    • 1/2 inch ginger chopped
    • 1/2 hot green chile optional
    • 1/2 tsp turmeric
    • 1 tsp coriander powder
    • 1/2 to 1 tsp garam masala or 1 to 1.5 tsp biryani masala
    • 1/3 tsp cayenne less or more to preference

    • 1/2 bell pepper chopped, or other veggies
    • 1 3/4 cup water
    • 3/4 to 1 tsp salt
    • lemon juice , cilantro for garnish

    Instructions

    • Soak the black eyed peas and basmati rice in hot water for 20-30 minutes. In the meanwhile, prep and follow the next steps.
    • Press saute mode on IP. Add oil and let it get hot. Add the seeds and cloves and cook for half a minute. Add the nuts and cook for a minute to roast. Add the onion, ginger, garlic, and chile and a pinch of salt and cook for 2 minutes. Stir occasionally.
    • Add the ground spices (turmeric through cayenne) and mix in.  Add the tomato and peppers and mix in. Cook for a minute.
    • Drain the black eyed peas and rice and add to the pot. Add water and salt and mix in.
    • Pressure cook for 18 to 20 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally.
    • Taste and adjust salt. Add more garam masala or other spices if needed and mix in.
    • Add a good dash of lemon and cilantro, some chopped red onion and serve with pappadum or crackers. I also like the pulao with some kachumbar salad.

    Notes

    Stovetop: Follow steps 1 to 3 in a Saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until tomatoes are tender. Mash the larger pieces. Add the soaked black eyed peas, rice and 2 1/2 cups water. Partially cover and cook for 30 minutes. Add salt and mix in. Add more water if needed. Continue to cook for another 10 to 20 minutes until the beans and rice are cooked through. 
     
    Variations: Use green Mung beans or adzuki beans or small kidney beans for variation. 
    Use Cajun blend, Berbere or Jamaican curry blend for non Indian flavor variation (omit the whole spices).

      Richa, I used to make this all the time as it was hubby’s fave. Unfortunately he is in a nursing home now and I am cooking at home for one. If I make the usual quantity, could I freeze it in single portions and then reheat in the microwave? I am trying to pre-prepare my own ‘ready meals’ rather than relying on shop bought stuff so much. Many thanks.

        Yes you can do that for most stews or moist grain and bean meals. Just freeze individual portions in containers that don’t have too much space above the stew

      This recipe is amazing! I had actually already just cooked some black eyed peas and had rice left over from lunch before I came across this recipe. I followed steps 1-3 then added a little water and let it cook on med-low until the veggies were tender. I didn’t pay attention to how much water I used. I just put in the amount that looked right for everything to simmer. Then I stirred in the beans and rice and adjusted the salt and spices to suit my taste. It worked great!

      Very good. I made this on the stove top following those directions. I only had canned black eyed peas so they were added in the last 10 minutes. I also had 1 cup of chopped carrots to use up from another Vegan Richa recipe so I threw those in. So far we are loving her recipes!

      I made this recipe today exactly as written. I did double it. Soaked the black eyed peas and the brown basmati for 20 min. in hot water and cooked everything with 3 cups of water for 19 min. Though, since I doubled it I used a can of petite diced tomatoes.
      Normally I am not a fan a black eyed peas, but I love garam masala, so I thought it has to be good. While eating I came across some “al dente” pieces and I thought those were black eyes peas not cooked through, but later I remembered the peanuts….I guess those were peanuts I was biting into. 🙂
      Me and my husband both liked it and I am glad that I doubled it, because I love leftovers! I want to try it with different spices like you suggested and maybe other beans as well.
      Thank you so much for your delicious recipes!

      Gave this recipe a try and following the directions, cooking it for the full 20 minutes under high pressure. I used brown jasmine rice and dry black eyed peas, soaking both in hot water for 30 mins prior to cooking. I found that adding 1-3/4 cups of water prior to pressure cooking was too much water; there was still some liquid after cooking, and the rice was a little bit overcooked. I’ll try it next time with 1-1/4 cups of water (roughly equal to the bean & rice volume), and 18 minutes of cooking. I think it would be better with those changes, at least in my case!

        could be the jasmine rice. I usually use brown basmati. You can cook it on saute for a few mins to reduce.

        Cooking time for quinoa if 1 min under pressure, so it doesnt match with black eyed peas which need 17 to 19 mins. quinoa will overcook and disintegrate. You can use quinoa and red lentils in the recipe and cook for 2 mins under pressure and natural release.

      This was totally delicious – have put off using brown rice until I got the Instant Pot, now this recipe will be on regular rotation, though think I need to add a more colourful vegetable, probably carrot as it will stand up to the longer cooking time. The black eye peas and rice cooked to a lovely creamy texture though, hubby was most impressed. So impressed I may have to double this next week and freeze some.

Used a whole onion, freekeh and adzuki beans (pre cooked, added them at the end). Love the hotness of this dish, perfect for winter. Filling, interesting and so healthy. And of course, delicious.

      This was SO delicious! Made it for New Year’s for my “black-eyed pea hating” husband and he LOVED it and gave it “5 stars!!!” (in my recipe clipper). I even goofed it up a bit by doubling the recipe AND the water (read these comments later about using less water when doubling), so it was rather soupy. I look forward to using less water next time if I double it OR just making the smaller batch. But oh, the leftovers…….

      Going to make this next week and I have 2 questions. First, will Brown jasmine rice work with this recipe and 2. After we saute, is the IP supposed to go on high pressure and how long should we allow it to naturally release? I am quickly becoming a repeat visitor to your site!

        October 03, 2018 at 3:36 pm

        Yes it should work. Yes, acel saute and press pressure cook/Manual (default is hi pressure). You dont have to time the natural release. Justopen the pot whenever the pressure knob goes down, usually about 10 to 12 mins

        they will overcook in the cook time. you can reduce the water to 1 1/2 cups and cook just the brown rice. then open the pot, add the drained black eyed peas and simmer for 4 to 5 mins for the flavors to develop in the black eyed peas. let sit for another 5 mins before serving

        White basmati rice needs 6 to 7 mins cooking time when cooked on its own, so 18 mins would overcook it. You can use precooked black eyed peas. Soak the rice for 10 mins, drain, add the cooked black eyed peas with the soaked rice, use 1.5 cups of water. Pressure cook for 7 to 8 mins, natural release.

          use about 1.25 cups of cooked black eyed peas (anywhere from 1 to 1.5 cups will do)

      I made this and it was so good. I made it with your jamiacan curry spices. Everyone loved it.

      Thanks, Richa

      This was delicious, as expected. I chose the recipe to use bits and pieces in my fridge. So, instead of peppers, I added carrots (in coarse julienne), and cabbage + I added some swish chard at the very end. Just the inspiration I needed to clean my fridge while enjoying a delicious bowl of lobia pulao!

      I made this yesterday for my meal prep lunches for the week and it is outstanding!!! I made the recipe exactly as written, except I used roasted pepitas instead of peanuts. This will be in the regular rotation for sure!

      Do you think walnuts would work instead of cashews?

      This looks great! I don’t have an instant pot so I will use the stove top directions. Everybody seems to love the instant pot…maybe I should get one?

        It depends on the kind of cooking you do. Its basically an electric pressure cooker with additional functions such s scheduling, delayed cooking, warming (for yogurt or fermentation), steaming etc.

        they’ll get overcooked. You can make the recipe with 1.5 cups water and just brown rice and when you open the pot, mix in the drained black eyed peas and saute for a few minutes to incorporate the flavors.

        Ah i missed them in the instructions. They are added right after the whole spices(cumin etc). The ingredients are generally used in the order they are listed. so in case i miss them in the instructions. they go in the pot in the order. added the nuts now to the instructions

        yes, use 1/2 tsp ground cumin, 1/3 tsp ground mustard and 1/8 tsp ground clove and add it with the turmeric.
