This recipe combines the flavors of rajma (kidney beans) and sandal (a spiced tomato-based gravy) to create a delicious and nutritious dish. Here's how you can make it:
Ingredients:
1 cup dried rajma (kidney beans), soaked overnight and cooked until tender
2 tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 onion, finely chopped
2 tomatoes, pureed
2 teaspoons ginger-garlic paste
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
1 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust according to your spice preference)
1 teaspoon coriander powder
1 teaspoon garam masala
Salt to taste
Fresh coriander leaves for garnish
Instructions:
Heat oil in a large pan or pressure cooker over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.
Add chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.
Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté for a minute until the raw smell disappears.
Add the tomato puree, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well and cook for 5-6 minutes until the oil separates from the masala.
Add the cooked rajma (kidney beans) and mix everything together.
If using a pressure cooker, close the lid and cook for 2-3 whistles. If using a pan, cover and simmer for about 20-25 minutes until the flavors are well blended.
Once the rajma is cooked, sprinkle garam masala and mix well.
Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.
