    Rajma is one of my favourite dishes that I decided I must share! This vegetarian recipe is made of red kidney beans, one of the healthiest foods, and combined with several delicious spices. Usually served with rice, we decided to serve it with both Rumali roti and rice, which is the combination of foods that I serve when making Rajma.

    Ingredients

    • 1 cup rajma- large kidney beans
    • 1 cup homemade tomato puree
    • 1 finely chopped onion

    • Refines oil for cooking as required
    • 1 pinch asafetida- Hing
    • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds – Jeera
