Home made Rajma Recipe. This recipe serves 7 persons. Rajma or Kidney beans are a very good source of protein and fiber especially for vegetarians. I like to soak Rajma overnight. This recipe is made in pressure cooker. I have used the same method to make in instant pot and the results have been excellent. I always like to make double the quantity as my family loves this and I do not mind leftovers for the next day or day after😊 Hope you enjoy this recipe.
