Tomato Bhath in InstantPot

Tomato bath comes together in the InstantPot in under 30 minutes. The carb component comes from red rice plus moong dal. Which also contributes to the protein content along with quinoa. I use equal quantities, use them as per your preference. Veggies of choice. The mandatory ingredient is chopped tomatoes - 3 large or go for a can of diced tomatoes. I also add peanuts which adds a nice texture.
