Instructions
- Place black-eyed peas into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let soak at room temperature - for 8 hours to overnight. Drain and rinse; set aside.
- Blend onion, tomatoes, and garlic cloves using a blender to make a thick tomato puree.
- Heat olive oil in a pressure cooker over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and bay leaf and stir until it gives an aromatic fragrance.

- After one whistle, simmer the heat for 10 minutes. Then turn off the heat.
- Serve hot.
Notes
- For a milder flavor, use chicken or vegetable broth.
- For a richer flavor, use beef.
- Incorporating acidic elements like a splash of citrus juice (lemon or lime) or a touch of vinegar (balsamic, apple cider, or red wine vinegar) can brighten and balance the flavors in your black-eyed pea dish. The acidity adds a refreshing tang that enhances the overall taste profile.
