  1. Try heating one tablespoon of pure ghee or butter. Add a pinch of asfoetida, mustard seeds and few curry leaves to it and when they begin to splutter add the same to your rajma curry before eating..it will enrich the taste further. Smiles Mini
     
  2. This was so very good.Due to what I had on hand I subbed canned tomatoes for fresh,and dry ginger for fresh.It turned out great.I was unsure of water measurements and it was a little soupy but next time I will know better.My garam masala is a little heavy on the cloves and it was amazing.It couldn't be any easier to make,I think it would do well in the crock pot too.Thanks for my new keeper.

  5. Hi Charishma, Thanx for the recipe.I love rajma one of my favourite dishes especially rajma rice( the punjabi style).I made a few alterations. I love having oil free recipes, but just to try out I added about 2 tbsp of olive oil. I then added bay leaves , thinly sliced onions and fried it a lil.Then added ginger & garlic paste fried it till it leaves the raw smell added in tomatoes, green chilies, (till the tomato softened) then added the dry spices to it .Oh yeah!I added a lil curry powder too to it. After which I added rajma at the end till it cooked.It was one delicious recipe.Loved it !! Thanx again..
