Rajma (Kidney Bean Curry) with Spinach

Rajma is a North Indian curry of kidney beans cooked with onions, tomatoes and spices. "Rajma chawal" which just means rajma and rice is the most popular way to eat this curry, kind of like the Indian version of rice and beans. I liken rajma also to chili since it's cooked in a spicy tomato gravy. Usually, it's not made with spinach but I had a ton on hand so I just threw it in and it came out quite well.

  1. Drain and wash the kidney beans. Set aside.
  2. In a frying pan, heat ghee or oil under medium/high flame. Once hot, put in hing and cumin seeds. Shake up the pan so they mingle. When the cumin seeds pop or start to brown, throw in the onions and turn the heat to medium. Cook the onions until the become translucent and fragrant.
  3. Next put in the garlic, ginger and chilis. Stir around and fry for about 30-40 seconds. Then throw in the spinach and sautee. When the spinach just starts to wilt, put in the tomato sauce and mix in the coriander powder, garam masala, turmeric, chili powder and salt. Cook until the tomato starts to separate from the oil.
  4. Then, mix in the kidney beans. Simmer the curry for about 10 minutes until the gravy thickens a bit. You can also add some water to get to the consistency you prefer. Add salt to taste.
