Rajma kebab or Kidney bean kebab is a quick and easy recipe to make and it is so so delicious. A vegan and gluten friendly recipe that is loved by all.
Add the kidney beans to a small pan of boiling water. Bring to the boil and drain.

Add onions ginger, garlic and green chilli.
Once golden brown (2 - 3 minutes), add boiled potato and kidney beans. Roughly mash and then cook for 2 minutes.
Add the remaining ingredients to the pot and combine.
Allow to cool, then shape into 15 patties.
Put into the fridge for half an hour.
Heat a pan and add a little oil. Cook kebabs for a couple of minutes both side or until golden brown.
Notes
In terms of variations, if you are in a rush, skip the fridge time and add 1 tbsp of flour of your choice. I have tried corn flour and gluten free plain flour. I do feel it slightly affects the flavour though so I would up the spices if you do.
You can use any other beans that you prefer instead in this recipe. So Cannellini beans/black beans etc would be great too.
These keep well in the fridge for up to a week (cooked) in a sealed container. They also freeze well for up to a month.
