Making refried beans
  1. This is what rajma (kidney beans) looks like. This is 1/2 cup rajma (kidney beans). Just as its name suggests, the kidney bean is shaped like a kidney with a reddish brown colour and a thick skin. It has a strong flavour with a slightly sweet aftertaste, a nutty aroma and a chewy texture. The kidney bean is used extensively in Mexican cooking, and also in certain Indian dishes. It is quite popular in Punjabi cuisine.
  2. Rinse the rajma, kidney beans in water 2 to 3 times. It is better to change the water from time to time while you're soaking or cooking the beans. Pouring off the water helps gets rid of the indigestible complex sugars that create gas in your intestine. It also helps to cook the beans thoroughly, until they can be easily mashed with a fork. 
  3. Once the rajma is well washed, soak overnight in enough water in a deep glass bowl. Cover and soak. Store soaked rajma in the refrigerator in an airtight container and use within 2 to 3 days. Longer storage could cause an undesirable odour. Soaking rajma does not cause any nutrient loss but makes it easier to digest. Soaking before use is recommended for those with gastric troubles.
  4. Next day, this is what the soaked rajma looks like.
  5. Wash rajma.
  6. Drain rajma.
  7. In a pressure cooker put soaked  rajma (kidney beans).

  15. This is what it looks like.
  16. Keep the rajma mixture aside.
  17. Heat 1/2 tablespoon oil in a broad non-stick pan.
  18. Add 2 tbsp finely chopped onions.
  19. Sauté on a medium flame for 1 minute.
  20. Add the rajma mixture.
  21. Add 1/4 tsp chilli powder.
  22. Add 1/4 tsp roasted cumin seeds (jeera) powder.
