Rajma being cooked in a pot or pan : The Rajma should be soaked for 8-9 hours. It should be drained and rinsed with fresh water. Enough water should be boiled in a huge pot. Rajma and salt should be added. It should be covered and cooked for about 45 minutes to 1 hour and more, if required. It consumes a lot of time to cook Rajma if it is not cooked in a pressure cooker.
