Instructions:

  1. Wash the Rajma thoroughly and soak them in water overnight or for at least 6-8 hours. Drain the soaked Rajma and set aside.

  2. Heat oil in a pressure cooker or a deep pot over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds.

  3. Add the finely chopped green chilies and grated ginger. Sauté for a minute until they release their aroma.

  4. Lower the heat and add turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, garam masala, and salt. Mix well and cook the spices for about 30 seconds, stirring continuously.

  5. Add the pureed tomatoes to the spice mixture. Cook for a few minutes until the tomatoes are cooked and the oil starts to separate from the masala.

  6. Add the soaked and drained Rajma to the cooker or pot. Stir well to coat the Rajma with the tomato and spice mixture.

  7. Pour enough water to cover the Rajma by about an inch. Stir again, cover the pressure cooker, and cook on medium heat for about 4-5 whistles or until the Rajma is tender. If using a pot, cover it and simmer on low heat for about 1.5-2 hours until the Rajma is cooked through and soft.

  8. Once the Rajma is cooked, remove from heat and let the pressure release naturally from the cooker. If using a pot, simply turn off the heat.

  9. Open the pressure cooker or pot and garnish the Rajma Masala with freshly chopped coriander leaves.

  10. Serve the Rajma Masala hot with steamed rice or roti (Indian bread). You can also garnish it with a dollop of yogurt, if desired.

Enjoy your flavorful and aromatic Rajma Masala without onion and garlic!
