Soak rajma overnight and prepare it with peppercorns, salt and only two cups of water.

In a wide frying pan, heat oil and saute onions till transparent but dont make it brown.

Add tomato puree and cook on high heat. Stir it frequently until oil is released. Add boiled rajma and water (water in the boiled rajma) and continue to cook on high heat till the sauce begins to thicken.

Add tomato ketchup and malt vinegar (it tastes mild and sweet) to it . Allow it to boil for 2 minutes and remove from heat. Add green chillies and coriander leaves !! 

Guys! Actually i found this dish from Sunday Magazine - The Hindu :-)

I tried it today and posting it for you because  "Rajma, red kidney beans, came to India from the New World, and are said to be one of the best, healthiest foods. They contain zero fats, saturated or trans-fat, zero sodium and high dietary fibre".
