(If you are using kadai add 1/4 cup water and close with lid. cook in stove top until it gets fully cooked). I here Pressure cook the beans mixture for 5 to 7 min in medium low flame.

Now open the pressure cooker, 5 min after switching off the stove. If you see some watery consistency, keep it in medium low flame until it has 1 to 2 spoon masala water. Don’t cook it too dry. Then add the grated coconut. Stir it for 1 minute & switch off the stove.
