Rajma Corn Masala

Rajma or kidney beans are certainly very healthy with loads of magnesium and potassium. Rajma chawal being one of most widely loved combination I thought of trying something new and exciting and giving the usual taste a different twist. And so I came up with Rajma Corn Masala. Simple name and even more simple recipe.  All you need is :

Ingredients :

1. Rajma/ kidney beans : 250 gm ( soaked overnight and then cooked in pressure cooker)
2. Garlic Cloves : 5-7 ( mashed with the back of your knife)
3.  Corn : 1/2 cup ( boiled)
4. Green chilli : 1-2
5. Tomato : 1 cup
6. Tabasco : 1 Tbsp
7 . Jeera: 1/2 tsp
8. Kitchen king masala : 1 Tbsp
9. Kasuri methi : 1 / 2 tsp
10. Dahi : 1 Tbsp
11. Red chilli powder : 1tsp
12. Salt and pepper to taste
13. Oil : 1 Tbsp.

Method :

1. In a kadhai heat oil and jeera, garlic and fry till the garlic turns slightly golden brown and then mix in green chillies. Now add the tomato and fry till the oil separates.
2. Add the kitchen king masala, red chilli powder, salt and pepper. Add tad little water to avoid the masala from burning. Now add in rajma and corn.
3. Mix for 2-3 mins on a very low flame. And tabasco and roasted kasuri methi.
4. Add dahi mix well. And switch of the gas.
5. Garnish with lemon wedge and serve with hot hot chapatis.

I used tabasco in this recipe because I wanted to add in that tanginess and that real spice kick.
Rajma in any form tastes amazing.  Do try this recipe.
