Could you be little more elaborate ?
You say pressure cook for 10 minutes and then in nnext step you say bhuno the masala.

Do I open the cooker and then bhuno the masala or what ?

Anjum said...

Dear Drk_411

The whole idea of pressure cook is to make meat tender. Once that is done in pressure cooker, open the lid and then you need to Bhuno the masala. Again the idea behind Bhuno is to make sure the masala is well cooked as that can't happen in pressure cooker.
Hope this clarifies.

Good luck
