This is one dish which is relished, both by Young and Old.The rice is usually served steaming hot with Rajma. If you don't get it right,you are likely to loose 'face' and your cooking questioned. Rajma comes in a variety of shapes, color and flavour. I recommend, the normal 'chitra' variety i.e the kidney shaped bean which is deep pink in color having deep 'red etchings'. They are commonly available with the grocers all over.
This dish is a curried preparation.
-01 cup Chitra Rajma. Wash & drown it over night.
-01 cup Onion diced fine.
-01 cup Tomato diced fine.OR 1/2 cup Tomato puree.
-02 tps Ginger and Garlic paste each.
-01 tps each of Red chili powder, Jeera, Coriander powder & Garam Masala.
-01" Cinnamon & 04 cloves.
- Salt to taste.
-03 Tps fresh Coriander leaves. 02 fresh green Chili diced fine.
-1/2 tps Red food grade color.
-1/2 tps Turmeric powder.
-60 ml Cooking Oil.
- Water.
METHOD
Step One
Boil, the overnight wet Rajma, in a pressure cooker to which add a little salt, along with half of the ginger & garlic paste. Also, put in the Cinnamon and 02 Cloves. Remove and keep aside.
Step Two
In a deep vessel ( say a 'Patila') like a wok or kadai pour in the Oil and heat.
Put in the remaining Ginger & Garlic paste, diced green Chili and Jeera.
Fry, as it starts to turn light brown put in the Onion and fry.
Sprinkle in a little Salt when Onions turn transparent. Also, add 02 big spoonful of the boiled Rajma and mash the beans as you fry. You may put in spoonful of water to help make a paste.
Put in all the dry masala and fry till golden.
Add Tomato and fry the masala, adding little at a time, the Water in which the Rajma had been boiled.
Stir fry well to convert the masala to a near paste consistency.
Adjust the salt for the last time and dissolve in the edible red color. Stir.
Now, put in all of the boiled Rajma. Stir, cover to cook when the mixture begins to boil.
Cook covered on low flame. When achieved the desired consistency, switch off the flame.
Garnish with fresh green coriander and serve with steaming rice.

VEGETARIAN (mince) KEEMA….Indian Masala
This is a simple dish, which is beautifully different. There are no exotic ingredients in this preparation, yet the dish is very delightful. Before I proceed, I would like to clarify a doubt in many a mind. The Meat Masala and chicken Masala are concocted spices that have no non- vegetarian items. The formulation of spices is such that it highlights the meat / chicken dish. Using these in vegetarian dishes only makes the vegetarian dish to acquire an exotic taste.

13. Water
STEP ONE
1. Crush the Vadi & powder it to the size of the soya granules (in dry state)
2. Drown the Soya granules in enough water, to allow it to soften.
METHOD
1) In a wok, pour half of the oil and fry the crushed Vadi till light brown. Remove, drain and keep aside.
2) Pour all of the oil in the same wok and on heating put in ginger, garlic and green chili. Fry till garlic starts to brown.
3) Put in the diced onion and fry. On turning transparent, add the fried Vadi granules along with squeezed Soya granules. Sprinkle a little salt and stir fry.
4) On beginning to brown add all the dry spices, except ½ of meat Masala, and stir fry. Blend & continue to fry, ensuring that the mix does not burn or stick to the bottom by sprinkling spoonful of water every now and then.
5) Adjust salt and put in the diced tomato. Stir fry, adding water by the spoons till the tomato bits reduce and the oil begins to float.
6) Join the green peas, meat masala and now fry on a reduced flame. Pour in half cup of water. Partially cover and cook for 05 minutes. Switch off and remove to dish.

MUTTON PULAOO.....Indian Masala
Mutton (goat / lamb) pulaoo or pilaf is a combined dish of rice cooked in meat. Though all meats consumed by humans can be used for this dish, but the original combination is of goat or lamb (chicken, too) meat. It is thought, the original was concocted by Sheppard who, for the ease of making a complete meal combined the meat, rice and a few essential spices with salt, invented this dish. There are a few other versions, but then, we are interested in the meal and not the history of it.
Over the years, this combination has undergone a sea of change. Also, the ingredients vary from region to region and country. In the Indian context, I would like to believe that the Moguls’ brought the version amongst its vast repertoire of exotic culinary items.
The version I have listed below is as gleaned down the years from my dear Mothers’ cooking.
She made this best by using homemade pure ghee (clarified butter). You may, if you so desire, use the cooking medium you regularly use for your cooking. Also, the selection of cuts will add to the end product. I would suggest, use portions of ‘Puth’ (small of the back), Chops and a portion of ‘Seena’ (chest).

5. When the oil begins to float, pour in enough water to just drown the meat.
6. Pressure cook for only 08 minutes after the initial whistle. Switch off the flame and let the cooker to cool without opening the lid.
7. Open the cooking vessel; remove the mutton on a plate without the gravy. Keep aside.
