An amazing twist by me to the ever famous Rajma with an added attraction of Whole Green Gram or Sabut Hari Moong. This is Lentil and Bean Rajma in plain words.
Simple yet an excellent twist for that lovely dish to be relished at mealtimes on any day.
You will just love this combo.
It not only is creamy and great but the colour too looks tempting.

It turned out so well and my family thoroughly enjoyed it both with the Rice as well as the Rotis.
Easily done just like Rajma but only with a difference of that extra Lentil that is used in it.
Full of natural goodness of Protiens and Vitamins, this dish is a complete meal in itself.
Children as well as the adults will love it for sure. It can be enjoyed with any Indian Bread, Cumin Rice, Pulao, Bhaturas etc.

Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Steps

1

Wash and soak Rajma and Whole Green Moong overnight. Soak in clean drinking water and keep it covered. Do not throw this water. Pressure cook it along with the same water for 8-10 whistles with a Bay leaf, Turmeric powder and a little of Salt. Keep aside until use.
2

In a pan, heat Ghee and saute Onions with Ginger garlic paste. To this add slit Green Chillies and all the spices. Also add finely chopped Tomatoes and saute all of that until done or until Ghee starts separating from the sides of the pan.
3

To this one now, finally add the boiled and coarsely mashed Rajma and Whole Green Gram. Mix well and adjust Salt accordingly. Cook on a low for the next 10 minutes until everything gets incorporated well. That's it.
4

Garnish with more of chopped Coriander Leaves. Enjoy this beautiful looking creamy comfort food of all times with simple boiled Rice. The combination is just out of this World. Creamy and luscious Rajma or Kidney Beans is one ideal food of especially Northern parts of India. But it's a one dish that every Indian loves, no matter from which part they are. Such is it's charm.
Enjoy!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
