The Best $1 You Can Spend in India! (Ep. 5: Rajma Chawal) | Discovering Jammu

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.

Wow, Makes me want to travel from England to Jammu right now to enjoy the scenery and that wonderful dish, despite the fact I’ve just returned from two months travelling around India…. ❤️ India 🇮🇳

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!

[@KarlRock]

Yes, you can make it at home very easily with ingredients from your local Indian store. Do try to specifically get Rajma from Jammu. Enjoy.

[@bhambhole]

Any suggestions on what spices to use? I'm interested in making this at home. Thank you, Karl.

I am from Jammu, and I have relished this Rajma Chawal at this exact same place when I was travelling to and from Bhaderwah. My tongue just watered up as I remembered the taste watching this video. So lovely to see Karl enjoying this dish here.

[@-_-Neelakshi-_-]

I am glad to see that you are enjoying spending time at my hometown and that rajma chawal. Whenever I visit my hometown it's a staple to have it and it's been going on for generations that everyone in my family who visits bhaderwah has to eat rajma chawal at this place.

[@realshivm___]

Welcome to Jammu much love❤️

[@krishverma36]

This video showcasing Rajma Chawal in Jammu is a delightful watch! It's amazing how a simple dish like this can bring so much joy and satisfaction. The passion for food and culture shines through in every bite. This truly captures the essence of experiencing local cuisine and culture. Can't wait to try this dish for myself!

[@charbertolahmahnz9173]

Thank you for this! The food I make is missing that ghee at the end. That's what I was always curious about where I was missing out!

[@rustybell2722]

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.

[@zengrath]

I have no idea what that food actually taste like, but you make it look good and i'd try it.

[@saanjalisingh7125]

Its the water of this area that makes it special

[@deepgupta2825]

This area is Baggar and the Rajma is kept on fire for hours together which gives it a thick consistency. This whole area is famous for Anardana(Pomegranate Seeds) which is sour in taste and grows as wildly. Visit in October if u want to see Pomegranate laden trees

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.
