Recipe Marathon # 1 Day 8 with Kidney Bean Rice ( Rajma Chawal )
The famous Rajma(kidney beans) chawal ( rice) in North India is a fav. of many including me. The goodness in the rice in terms of Nutrition is awesome and the taste competes with the nutrition. I know that Rajma chawal is Kidney beans gravy eaten with plain rice. Purist will be shocked if I call this recipe Rajma Chawal since it is just a rice and not gravy’ish at all. But I have based this rice with the same recipe as Rajma Chawal.
If you want it like gravy just cook the rice seperately and cook the rajma with the same ingredients but add some water to get the gravy consistancy and eat it with plain rice.
Method
1.Heat the pan and saute the spices in little oil/butter along with bay leaf .Add the onion and the ginger garlic paste , chillies and saute till soft.
2.add the tomato and cook further for 2-3 min. Add Rajma ( kidney beans) and stir them well along with Black salt ( or plain salt).
3..Then mix in the rice
and garnish with spring onions/cilantro.
