Soaking of black-eyed beans is optional. However, if soaking them, soak them for 4 to 6 hours.
Wash the beans and add black-eyed peas and water to the Instant Pot inner pot.
1 cup dried black eyed peas, 2 cups water
Close the Instant Pot with its lid and select manual or pressure cook mode. Cook it for 5 minutes on high pressure for soaked black-eyed peas. Cook it for 16 minutes on high pressure for dried black-eyed peas.
Once the Instant Pot finishes cooking, you can wait for a natural pressure release or release the pressure manually after 10 minutes.
Drain the water and keep the cooked black-eyed peas aside.

Take cooked black-eyed peas into a blender jar or food processor. If using canned peas, drain them thoroughly and use them.
Add roughly chopped onions, garlic, green chili or jalapeno, lemon or lime juice, cumin powder, cilantro leaves, salt, and oil.
½ cup onion, ½ cup cilantro leaves, 2 jalapeno, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon cumin powder, ¾ teaspoon salt, 3 garlic pods
Blend everything as per your desired consistency. If you want to make it creamy, use more oil and a tablespoon of water. We prefer to make it chunky and serve it with crackers.
