    Rajma/Kidney Beans Gravy

    Rajma

    North Indian cuisine brings back nostalgic memories of Delhi.

    This blogging marathon for the next 3 days my memories of Delhi and Amma cooking.

    Rajma

    Serves: 10
    Futura Pressure cooker time: 20 minutes
    Recipe Source: Futura Cookbook
    Ingredients:
    • 2 tablespoon ginger garlic paste
    • ½ cup vegetable oil
    • 3 red Kashmiri chillies, dry and whole
    • 2 large onions, grated
    • 3 large tomatoes, chopped
    • 1 tablespoon red chilli powder
    • Salt
    • 2½ kidney bean soaked overnight or in hot water for 2 hours and drained
    • 4¼ water
    • 1 teaspoon garam masala powder
    Method:
    Rajma

     

    • Heat the oil in the cooker, add the chillies and stir-fry for a few seconds.
    • Add the onions and fry gently till golden brown.
    • Now add the ginger garlic paste stir fry till you get a nice aroma.
    • Add the tomatoes, chilli powder and salt.
    • Mix and cook till oil separates. You will need to do this  cooking on of course low flame and for about 5 minutes. Remember to stir occasionally.
    • Now add the soaked beans and the water. Stir. Close the cooker and bring to full pressure on high flame.
    • Reduce heat and cook for 20 minutes. In a regular cooker cook for 6-7 whistles.
    • Once done cool the cooker naturally.
    • Open the cooker. Partially mash the beans with the ladle.
    • Add garam masala and serve hot with naans or rice. I served with onion and green chilli stuffed rotis.
