Ingredients
2. In a pressure cooker or pan add 2 to 2.5 cups of water and pressure cook for 10 to 15 whistles. If the beans are not cooked well once again pressure cook for 10 to 15 minutes.
3. Melt 2 tbsp of unsalted butter in a pan or kadai and add the bay leaf and cumin. Then add the ( paste 1) onion, garlic, ginger paste.
6. Allow it to boil well for 7 to 10 minutes without the lid. Now you can see the gravy will thicken. At this stage add the garamasala powder.
8. Next add the cold milk along with the milk skin. Mix the gravy well and keep in simmer for 5 to 8 minutes or till you get the consistency you like.
9. Serve the rajma masala with roti, poori and parathas along with a tbsp of butter on the top of the gravy.
Notes :
I prefer the gravies to be not too thick or too runny so I have added cold milk for the medium consistency. If you like to prepare thick gravy then, you can add store bought fresh cream in the final stage. If you want more spicy you can increase the quantity of red chilly powder and garamasala powder.
