Dhaba Style

How to Make Best Punjabi Rajma Masala Quick – Dhaba Style!! – This recipe is one of my favorite’s. As a kid I was a picky eater and a vegetarian which meant no vegetables just Lentils. While growing up both my parents were working and my sister was in college. This meant most of the days if my mom prepared some lunch for me that I didn’t like I had either an option to get something from a nearby Dhaba or cook something. After coming home from school sometime I would just stop at the Dhaba and see the cooking in action. It always fascinated me how they were able to make certain dishes so quickly and yet so delicious.

Well when i finally started working , after a long day I would crave some Indian food. Being in the US this usually meant either eat frozen Food (which sucks) or cook myself but after a long day of work I did not have time to prepare meals that tasted like restaurant’s food. This brought back the some of the memories from my childhood , specifically the Dhaba near my house.  So I set out on a mission to recreate the Dhaba Style recipe’s with very less effort. I remember eating the Rajma at the Dhaba and falling in love with the simplicity of the dish.

Well after having conversations with a lot of my Chef friends, checking out a lot of Dhaba’s and testing countless ways to make Rajma , I have perfected this Rajma Masala Recipe and got the secret. This is the most authentic way of cooking Dhaba Style Rajma Masala and the best part is its a very quick recipe.
