Rajma is ranked 14 by TasteAtlas: Chefs share what makes this Indian dish so appealing

Hindustan Times  

Rajma, often eaten with boiled white rice, is called a hug in a bowl by those looking for a comfort meal. Rajma Chawal is one of the most comforting Indian foods Rajma is in the top 50 best bean dishes of the world For chef Nishant Choubey, seeing rajma on this list isn't “surprising” as it is so easily “adaptable to fit all kinds of cuisines”. Chef Choubey says, “The local people adopted the bean, cooking it over a low fire and with minimalistic spices and ghee, making it the sublime dish we know today. The typical Kashmiri red chilli powder is also added to it, while tempering the gravy.” For chef Amit Kocharekar of Hotel Marine Plaza, Mumbai, his approach to rajma goes beyond the classic. Inspired by the robust flavours of refried beans, he shares his vision: "Our version uses an Indian-style thick gravy rajma with spices, topped with an in-house hot sauce, tomato chutney, sour cream, pomegranate seeds and crispy lotus stem chips, which ultimately becomes a dish which gives u a resemblance of loaded nachos converted into an elevated version of chaat"
