Rajma Chawal Recipe with step by step pictures. Chapati, naan or rice is a important part in a indian diet. Thinking what to make to go along with chapati or rice is one big task. I normally make mixed veg kurma, paneer curry or dal curry for rice. Sometimes i feel too lazy and have roti with pickle and yogurt. Sometimes with leftover curry from lunch. Rajma curry is my favourite, i love to have it with either rice or roti. Specially it taste amazing with plain cooked basmati rice. You can make this curry mild or spicy or extra spicy by increasing the chilli level. This curry is super easy to make, all you have to blend few ingredients and cook with few spices. You will get a delicious curry in few minutes. This curry can be stored for few days in fridge, actually the flavours will increase as it stands. The main thing you have to remember is cooking the rajma really well. Normally it takes 3 to 4 whistle for a soaked rajma. You have to soak rajma for atleast 8 hours or overnight. If you are cooking it in a regular pot, cover the rajma with water and bring it to a boil, simmer for 45 mins to 1 hour or till tender. So it is better to invest in a pressure cooker for fast cooking. In a pressure cooker it takes under 15 mins to cook.
