  9. heat oil + butter in another pot or pan. add cumin first and let them crackle & get browned.
  10. then add onions and saute them till they caramelized or golden browned.
  11. take care not to burn them as this will impart bitter tones in the curry.

  14. add the ginger-garlic-chili paste. stir and saute for 5-10 seconds on a low flame.

  24. mash a few rajma beans with the spoon. this helps to thicken the curry.
  25. when the rajma masala has thickened and comes to the right consistency which is neither too thick nor thin, then add the kasuri methi and cream.
  26. stir & simmer rajma masala for 30 seconds to 1 minute. switch off the fire.
  27. serve rajma masala restaurant style with steamed basmati rice, jeera rice or naan.
NOTES
1. to make this dish gluten free, omit the asafoetida in the recipe.
2. canned kidney beans can also be used. in this case, just make the curry or sauce first and then add the rajma beans and water.
if cooking rajma in a pot or pan:
first soak the rajma as usual for 8-9 hours. drain them and rinse them with fresh water. then in a huge pot, boil enough water first. add the rajma and salt. cook covered for about 45 to 1 hour or more if required. it takes a long time to cook rajma without a pressure cooker.
