You can also make it only with green chillies and cream. Heat oil, add jeera, chopped onions and saute. Add ginger/garlic paste and lots of slit green chillies (depends on how spicy you want it). Add the chopped palak and the pressure cooked rajma and cover and cook for 5 min. When the water is let out, then add a full packet of cream alongwith salt and and little sugar and cover and cook again for another 15 min. Enjoy !!!!
