Indian Recipes (Most Popular)
Everyone has their own way of making gravies. I have tried different methods and liked all of them. Today I made a simplified version of Rajma by grinding all the ingredients together and simmering the mixture for some time. It was very tasty. My husband was carried away with the aroma of Rajma when he entered the house.
I love this. I use a curry powder that's a bit spicy, but you could find one with out so much kick if you prefer. Or you could used regular diced tomatoes instead of the ones with green chilies. I've never tried this recipe with lite coconut milk, if you're particularly health conscious, you might try that. Or, if you don't like chicken, I recommend substituting a can of chick peas. And, try adding other veggies! Cauliflower and potatoes are two that I think I'll try next time. I break up a warmed flour tortilla into pieces and scatter them in a modest bowl full of this spinach curry. Tortillas are easier to come by than naan around here, and they taste the same to me. Whatever's left after the tortilla is gone gets eaten by the spoonful.
