Kidney beans/Rajma roll

Ingredients

kidney beans 1 cup       Onion 2       ginger 2"       garlic 5-6 pearls
green chilies 6            tomatoes 4    turmeric pdr 1/2 tsp
green capsicum 1         garam masala 1 tsp     salt        oil
Kidney beans 1 cup was soaked overnight & pressure cooked till soft & mashed a bit. 2 big onions were cut fine, along with 2" ginger piece also cut fine, garlic pearls 6 cut fine, 6 green chilies cut fine. Fry all these vegetables in 1 tbsp of oil, then added finely cut tomatoes 4, fry well, added finely cut green capsicum, fried along with chana masala- 1 tsp, turmeric pdr. 1/2 tsp & salt to taste. OR, all the veg. can be ground & fried too, then add the mashed kidney beans, mix well.

Make rotis as usual, can be made before hand. Cut into 1/2 as shown in the picture, put a tbsp of the mixture, fold into triangle with some cheese & micro high for 1 minute, as the cheese will also melt. This was our night dinner today. Instead of eating plain roti, thought will have like this for a change. Both my husband & I liked it.

As kidney beans give gastric problem, it is better to cook it with lots of ginger & garlic. The amount of vegetables can be increased or altered as one wishes. So also the masalas/ spices in it as per one's taste. I think this can be easily packed for lunch for kids/ office where it can be heated & eaten.
