When the pressure falls down on its own, then open the lid.

Heat oil in a pan, then add chilli powder and stir for a few seconds.

Then add salt and mix. Next, add the cooked white peas and mix well.
Cover and simmer on low heat for 15 to 20 minutes.
Stir in between so that the mixture does not stick to the pan.
Add in the sugar, mix well and keep gravy covered.
