Pahadi red rajma, also known as red kidney beans, are a staple in North Indian cuisine. They are small, plump, and reddish-brown in color with a smooth, glossy texture. When cooked, they have a creamy texture that's slightly firm and a rich, nutty flavor that's both savory and slightly sweet. Pahadi red rajma are high in protein, fiber, carbohydrates, antioxidants, iron, and vitamins. They are also known for their ability to hold their shape and texture during cooking, and to absorb flavors well.
