Rajma

Kidney beans or rajma go along well with some white rice.

Prepare the curry with frying some onion until it is brown.


Add some cut tomatoes (use a can or fresh)


The kidney beans come already cooked so just drain them out and rinse them with water. Mix it all up and cover to cook for a few mins. Serve hot!!

Okra - Bhindi

You need lots of Okra plus some onion. The okra shrinks dramatically after it cooks so dont add any water while cooking!

Chop the okra and onion - red onions are preferred but you can use white ones too:





Add some oil to a pot and add the onions first. Cook until they are brown.


Add in the Orka and masalas - salt, haldi, garam masala. Cover and cook to steam the okra.




Ready to eat!

Spices

Some very essential ingredients! In this picture jira (cumin seeds), haldi (tumeric) powder and mirchi (chilli) powder. These plus salt and garam masala - a mix of spices are the basics!
