Laxmi Rajma Chitra is 4 lb of speckled light kidney beans — the chitra variety from the hills, loved for its thin skin and creamy interior.

Soak and slow-simmer for a Himachali-style rajma that melts into its gravy; serve over basmati with a spoon of ghee. Leftovers make excellent rajma wraps.

Laxmi Rajma Chitra is the kind of specific little item a deep international grocery exists to carry. Available for quick local pickup or same-day delivery within 10 miles of our Los Angeles store.
