3. Pressure cook for 6 to 7 whistles on a high flame, till both the urad dal and rajma have cooked thoroughly and softened. The urad dal should be cooked. You can also just mash the urad dal with a spoon or with your fingers to check the doneness. Keep the cooked beans aside.
4. In a pan, now heat 3 tbsp oil. First cut chilli and fry 1 minute.
5. Add the whole spices and stir. Sauté till the spices become aromatic.

8. Then add the cooked urad dal and rajma beans. Stir very well and simmer the dal makhani uncovered on a low flame for about 8-10 minutes.
