Heat ghee in the pressure cooker over saute or on stovetop, if your pressure cooker pot can be used on the stove.

Add ginger, garlic and dry spices and cook just until fragrant.

Add the remaining ingredients to the pan, including the cooked greens. Blend until completely smooth using an immersion blender. You can also puree in a blender and pour back into the pan.

Cook on medium heat for 5 minutes to blend flavors.
