So many people just add everything to a pot and cook them. But it just isn’t the same. Thanks for showing how layers of deep flavor are developed by the stepwise cooking of the different ingredients. Yum. I’m soaking my beans now to enjoy this tomorrow.

Hi Chetna!!I made these Rajma using your recipe today!! Amazing taste and flavour. Everyone in my family loved it. Just one more suggestion!! Add a teaspoon of ghee to your rajma chawal and it will triple the taste of the whole meal…

I always have 4-5 different kinds of dry beans in my pantry, but I rarely have dry red kidney beans because I don't mind canned kidney beans. But yours looked really good, and maybe much creamier than canned. Adding to the shopping list.

@@FoodwithChetna oh my gosh it's so good! I don't think I've had kidney beans cooked from dry before. They really do have a different (much better) texture than tinned. The only thing I changed from your recipe was that I popped it in the slow cooker instead of simmering on the stove. I'll be eating this for lunch and dinner tomorrow :)

@Persephone5962 10 ай бұрын

Hi Chetna, this is what I am making today from your ‘Healthy Indian Vegetarian’ book. I’m following the book but I’ve got one eye on your video to see what variations there are and especially for any of your fabulous extra tips. Next time I will use dried beans so i can compare the difference. I’m thinking that when using the tinned book version this is a brilliant quick store cupboard recipe as well as an exceptionally economic high protein meal and if i use the dried beans it makes it even cheaper still. A great way to eat nutritious food when managing your finances. Thank you for all that you do here on this channel 🥰

Love the channel! (Hi, Mom!) Have you heard of a cauliflower dish called "Brain" Curry? The one time I had it, there was a whole head of cauliflower cooked in a yellowish-brown sauce that made it look like a brain. Alas, I was too stunned to get the recipe. I improved something for my younger cousins to get them to try a veg and Indian food. It was a big hit, but nothing like the inspiration.

I must say cooking the ground onions on a nonstick posedme several problems and I gave up after a while. The onions went blue.... several times. So disheartening. Weird chemicals in non stick. Now I use the Instant pot which is a safer version of the Indian pressure cooker yikes.
