  • Is this the best Rajma Chawal (kidney beans & rice) in the world? I think so! I've never eaten rajma like this before. This region of Jammu is famous for producing sweet and juicy kidney beans, so it's also the best place to try a few plates of Rajma Chawal for just $1!

    I Lived in Jammu in the early 2000s, then moved to southern India. The taste of Rajma from Jammu was something else, havent tasted anything like that after I moved out from there. Thanks Karl for taking me down the memory lane.

    I love rajma. It’s one of my comfort foods, it reminds me of my years in Delhi.
    Whenever my wife makes her excellent rajma we make extra and invite over or take it to the other Desi families in the neighborhood.
    Here in the US (at least in our area) it’s very difficult to find a restaurant that makes rajma.
    Loving seeing this new motorcycle adventure! It looks like you’re having a blast!

  • @rustybell2722
    @rustybell2722 Před měsícem +1

    Karl, here's a content idea for you to think about. Have a portion at the beginning of each video that will teach viewers some Hindi that they can use when visiting India. I'm sure you can come up with a good list but some examples I've considered are: Please, thank you, toilet, hotel, help, police. So as not to overwhelm the memory capacity of some you could keep it to 2 somewhat related words per video. Then we could practice those words until your next video.

    Rajmah (not Rajma, you need that extra h at the end) is a classic in all of Punjab, where it is traditionally eaten with roti of some kind -- chapati, naan, tandoori roti. Rice was reserved for special occasions. That much ghee though -- it was more like a ladleful than a tablespoon -- is a way to mask the other flavors, and definitely not the way to avoid a future visit to your cardiologist.
