Pressure cook the rajma, along with a little salt and enough water for about 30 minutes until it is soft and well cooked.Heat a pressure cooker on medium heat with oil, add cloves of garlic and saute till they soften. Add in chopped onion and saute till they turn translucent and become slightly golden. Add washed chicken pieces and saute till the pieces are lightly roasted. Add in chopped parsley, coriander leaves, dried fenugreek leaves, dried oregano, salt to taste, turmeric powder and red chilli powder as well. Keep sautéing until the leaves wilt. Add 1 cup of water and pressure cook for around 3 whistles until the chicken is cooked well. Once done allow the pressure to release naturally.
