• Heat oil in the pressure cooker. Saute the sliced onion until soft. To this, add green chilies, sliced tomato, garlic and saute for a couple of minutes. Then add the soaked drained pulses. 
• To this, add the cubed potatoes (big sized) along with stock cube. Add salt. Combine very well, add a cup of water and pressure cook it for 2 whistles. 
• Meanwhile grind together roasted coconut powder and milk until smooth. Now once the pressure releases, add this coconut mixture and mix well. You can add half a cup of hot water if the gravy is thicker. Add pepper powder and let it cook for 5 minutes. Then remove from heat. Finally, add some curry leaves and sprinkle some pepper powder while serving.
• This veg gravy with pulses is very healthy and tastes really awesome. I recommend every one to try this recipe for sure.
