Makhani Rajma…Kidney Beans in a Makhani Gravy


DSC_0634-1

hi!
Makhani gravy is one of the most popular gravy’s from North India. I make various versions of this gravy and one can check out more options here and here.
Today I’m posting an extremely delicious and finger-licking curry which my family thoroughly enjoyed. If you enjoy restaurant style food, this gravy is a must try. S loved it to the core and demanded more of it. Sadly I could not provide him more as whenever I try something new I make a small batch and if we like it  I make more again. Surely the next time I make this I will make it more.
The gravy is delicately flavoured and is a winner in itself. I used rajma/kidney beans to bring about some innovation and I must admit that the beans go very well with this gravy. It’s an excellent side dish for a north Indian party.
To read step by step, how the basic makhani gravy was made, read here.
