Rajma Curry

Deb and I are fed up of the same old veggies for lunch. In our earlier location, we used to have a large gang of folks to lunch with so always had variety. However, since we moved to a different location we have been eating the same old veggies n non veggies day after day. So decided to cook some rajma. Didn't follow any recipe...just the usual ingredients.

Rajma - 1 cup (soaked overnight)
Aloo - 2-3 (I didn't use any as Deb is diabetic but you can)
Onions - 2
Chillies - 2
Garlic - 4-5 cloves
Ginger Paste - 1 tbsp
Turmeric powder - 1 tsp
Chilli powder - 1 tsp
Garam Masala - 1 tsp
Cumin seeds - 1 tsp
Oil - 1 tbsp
Coriander - a handful
Butter - a spoonful
Water - as per preference

- Boil the rajma in a pressure cooker with a little salt, turmeric and chilli powder.
- Heat some oil in a non-stick pan and once the oil is hot add the cumin seeds till it splutters.
- Add the chillies, chopped garlic and onions and let it cook till onions have browned
- Add the tomatoes and stir some more for 3-4 min
- Add the turmeric, chilli powder and garam masala and mix thoroughly.
- Sprinkle the chopped coriander
- Add this mix to the Rajma in the pressure cooker and stir thoroughly
- Add a little water, depending on the gravy consistency that you prefer
- Add salt to taste and a dollop of butter
- Pressure cook the rajma again

Voila! The Rajma curry is ready.
