RAJMAH (PUNJABI CURRIED RED KIDNEY BEAN) (SLOW-COOKER)



Rajmah (Punjabi Curried Red Kidney Bean) (Slow-Cooker) image

This recipe is by Anupy Singla, whose cookbook, "The Indian Slow Cooker", is a publishing sensation. She says slow cookers are particularly suitable for Indian cooking, reminiscent of clay cookers that would have been used for village cooking. This recipe is a traditional and classic North Indian dish that you would find in every home, but not in restaurants. Comfort food for Punjabis, this is the dish her family requests the most.

Time 11h15m

Yield 10 cups

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 cups dried red kidney beans, sorted and washed
1 medium yellow onions or 1 medium red onion, roughly chopped
2 medium tomatoes, diced
2 inches piece ginger, peeled and minced
3 garlic cloves, chopped
4 -6 serrano chilies or 4 -6 cayenne chilies, chopped
3 whole cloves
1 cinnamon stick, 2 to 4 inches
1 tablespoon whole cumin seed
1 tablespoon red chili powder
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon garam masala
9 cups water (if you soak overnight, use less water, see note)
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
hot cooked brown rice or hot cooked basmati rice
1 cup plain yogurt (optional)

Steps:

  • Safety note: This is not part of the recipe, but it is information that has recently been highlighted in various places. Dry beans, especially dry red kidney beans, contain a toxin called Phytohaemagglutinin, which can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain. Soaking and boiling dry beans helps remove this toxin to make beans safe to eat -- in a slow cooker, the temperature never gets hot enough to heat up dry beans sufficiently [source: U.S. Food and Drug Administration]. They recommend that you first soak them for a minimum of 12 hours, rinse them, and then boil them for 10 minutes. Singla has said that the long cooking here has the same effect, but if you have any concerns, please use these instructions, and expect the beans to finish cooking more quickly. Use less water if you start with soaked beans.
  • Put all ingredients except the cilantro and the rice into a 5 to 6 quart slow cooker. Cook on High for 11 hours, until the beans break down and the whole is somewhat creamy. (Several people have mentioned that it seems watery, so you might want to try less water - definitely less water if beans were pre-soaked).
  • If you can find them, remove the cloves and the cinnamon stick. If the beans are not as creamy as you want them, stick your immersion blender in there and whir a bit. (Or remove about one cup of the beans and process in blender or food processor). Most of the beans should remain whole.
  • Stir in cilantro and serve over rice.
  • Optional: Stir in 1 cup yogurt, cover and let sit for 10 minutes, for a tangy twist.
  • Use a 3 1/2 quart slow cooker if making half the quantity.

RAJMA (KIDNEY BEAN CURRY)



Rajma (Kidney Bean Curry) image

Rajma is comfort food at its best. I like rajma best with simple jeera (cumin) rice. Of course, some roti would be great too. When I was in college, I ate rajma at least once a week. Cheap, nutritious, and comforting. What is not to like?

Time 1h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 cups dry red kidney beans
1 large onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 (2 inch) piece fresh ginger root, chopped
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons ghee (clarified butter)
2 dried red chile peppers, broken into pieces
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
6 whole cloves
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
2 tomatoes, chopped
2 cups water
1 teaspoon white sugar
salt to taste
2 teaspoons garam masala
1 teaspoon ground red pepper
¼ cup cilantro leaves, chopped

Steps:

  • Place the kidney beans into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let stand 8 hours or overnight. Drain and rinse.
  • Grind the onion, ginger, and garlic into a paste using a mortar and pestle.
  • Heat the oil and ghee together in a pressure cooker over medium heat. Fry the red chile peppers, cumin seeds, and whole cloves in the hot oil until the cumin seeds begin to splutter; stir the onion paste into the mixture and cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown. Season with the ground turmeric, ground cumin, and ground coriander; continue cooking for a few more seconds before adding the tomatoes. Cook until the tomatoes are completely tender.
  • Add the drained kidney beans to the pressure cooker with enough water to cover; pour the 2 cups water additionally to the cooker. Add the sugar and salt. Close the pressure cooker and bring to 15 pounds of pressure; cook about 40 minutes. Lower the heat to low and cook another 10 to 15 minutes. Release the pressure and open the cooker. Stir the garam masala and ground red pepper into the bean mixture; garnish with chopped cilantro to serve.
