Rajma Masala

2 1/2 cups Kidney Beans, cooked
1 med. onion, peeled and quartered
2 med. onions, peeled and finely chopped
1 inch ginger root, finely diced
1 Tbsp coriander seed
1 green chili pepper, chopped
2 red chili peppers, chopped
1/2 tsp cumin seed
1/8 tsp tumeric powder
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
2 Tbsp. butter, unsalted
2 tsp. salt
3 cups. water
1 tsp. dried mango powder

I used dried beans, pressure cook, and then freeze in bags.

Remove 1/2 of cooked beans, crush coarsely and set aside. In a food processor, grind quartered onion, ginger, coriander, chili peppers, cumin, turmeric, black pepper, and cinnamon into a paste. Heat the butter in a large saucepan over med.-high heat. Add the chopped onion and stir until golden brown. Add the ground paste and saute, sprinkling water occasionally until the ghee starts separating from the paste. Add the cooked whole beans and stir in salt and mango powder. Stir for 10 min. Add 3 cups of water and crushed beans. Mix well and bring to a boil, twice. Serve over hot steamed rice.
