- Add chopped vegetables, spinach, carrots, beetroot, onion, ginger and green chili, to the tomatoes.
- Add salt and whole black peppercorns as well.
- Add water and close the lid with valve on the sealing position.
- Pressure cooks for 6 minutes on high pressure setting with NPR (natural pressure release). When the pin drops, open the lid. Blend the boiled tomatoes and vegetables until smooth, using an immersion blender or blender.
- For a smoother texture, sieve the pureed tomato mixture with a sieve. This step is optional and can be skipped if you like a less smooth texture.
- For tempering, heat oil in a separate pan and then add hing and cumin seeds to the hot oil. Let the cumin seeds splutter and then add turmeric powder and stir in the oil.
- Now add blended and seived tomato mixture to this tempering. Add the rest of the spices, roasted cumin powder, black salt, garam masala and sugar.

Notes
- To make cashew cream soak ¼ cup raw cashews in ¼ cup hot water for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes blend the soaked cashew (along with water in which cashews were soaked) into a cream. I used Nutribullet Blender to make cashew cream. Cashew cream is ready to use as a topping.
