DOKCHAN Organic Rajma Chithra (Whole) (NA)  (201 g)

Rajma Chitra, also known as Chitra kidney beans, is a variety of kidney beans popularly used in Indian cuisine, particularly in North Indian dishes such as rajma masala. These kidney beans are medium-sized with a distinctive reddish-brown speckled pattern, hence the name "Chitra," which means "spotted" or "variegated" in Hindi. Rajma Chitra is valued for its creamy texture and nutty flavor, which makes it a perfect choice for dishes like rajma masala, where the beans are cooked in a rich tomato-based gravy with various spices. This dish is often served with rice or roti (Indian flatbread) and is a staple in many Indian households and restaurants. To prepare Rajma Chitra, the beans are typically soaked overnight and then cooked until tender before being added to the masala gravy. The cooked beans absorb the flavors of the spices and tomato sauce, resulting in a hearty and satisfying dish. Rajma Chitra is not only delicious but also nutritious, as kidney beans are an excellent source of protein, fiber, and various vitamins and minerals. They are a popular choice for vegetarians and vegans looking to incorporate plant-based protein into their diets.
