Meanwhile take a pressure cooker add oil and heat it on high flame.. When oil starts to smoke add finely sliced onions and green chiles.. Since the oil is hot enough the onions and chillies will be translucent with fraction of minutes.. Saute it

Continue cooking again for few more minutes with the lid closed if chana is not completely tendered. Put of the flame

* Step 5

Once the pressure settle down on it's own remove the lid and shimmer the chana masala gravy on slow to medium flame till the gravy thickens slightly. Mash some chana pieces with spoon as this helps in thickening of the gravy... Chana masala gravy should be of medium consistency.. Put off the flame.
