1 medium to large onion, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup (149 g) diced red pepper
1 small jalapeño or other hot chile, minced
Pressure cooker first cook:
2 tsp (4 g) smoked paprika
1-2 tsp (3-5 g) chili powder
1 1/2 cups (218 g) dried black-eyed peas, soaked overnight and drained
4 dates, finely chopped
1 1/2 cups (355 ml) water or vegetable broth, plus more as needed

2 cups (32 g) chopped greens (such as kale, collards or Swiss chard)
Salt to taste
For serving:
Hot sauce such as Tabasco or Texas Pete

Steps:

  • For the sauté, use the sauté setting over normal, or medium heat, and heat the oil (if using). Add the onion and sauté until transparent, 5 minutes. Then add the garlic and peppers and sauté for a minute more.
  • For the first pressure cook, add the smoked paprika, chili powder and black-eyed peas and stir. Add the dates and water but do not stir. Put the lid on the Instant Pot and cook at high pressure for 3 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally.
  • For the second pressure cook, open the lid carefully. Add the tomatoes and greens. Return to high pressure for 1 more minute, then turn the valve to release manually. Add salt to taste.
  • To serve, you can add as much hot sauce as you want to the pot or pass it at the table so diners can add it themselves.

This recipe was a disaster. The black-eyed peas were mushy and the greens were tough. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This was a good recipe, but I made a few changes. I used fresh collard greens instead of frozen, and I added a bit of cayenne pepper for some heat. It turned out great!

I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The black-eyed peas were overcooked and the flavors were bland. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

I'm not a huge fan of black-eyed peas, but this recipe changed my mind. The combination of flavors was so good that I couldn't stop eating them. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a hit with my family! The black-eyed peas were cooked perfectly and the flavors were amazing. I especially loved the smokiness from the paprika and cumin. I will definitely be making this again.
