Kidney beans (rajma)

राजमा

Dals & Pulses

Rich, meaty bean for the North Indian curry of the same name.

What to know

Must be soaked and then fully cooked through — undercooked kidney beans are genuinely unpleasant and hard to digest.

Storing it: Airtight, cool and dark.

Measures

1 cup ≈ 160 g

Cups here are the Indian 200 ml cup, not the 240 ml US cup — a common reason a recipe does not work. Weigh where you can; the grams are the figure we cook to.
