Summary

Urban Granny Easy Cook rajma is a super convenient product, perfect for a nuclear set-up. Brilliant texture, maximum freshness, Mishry recommends this.

Remember the rush of joy that followed ‘Rajma for lunch tomorrow’? Imagine if mum forgot to soak the pulses. The horror. 

These creative culinary specialists brainstormed and brought to us pre-soaked and boiled pulses where all you need to do is simmer them in gravy and the dish is ready. For our Urban Granny Easy Cook Rajma review, we ordered the 375-gram pack and here’s what we have to say. 

Is this worth the price?

Our Review Factors

What were we looking for when reviewing Urban Granny Easy Cook rajma?

Freshness, how well they take on the flavors, texture, overall quality were certain parameters we set. 

1. Texture 

Are the beans cooked well? Overcooked and squishy or undercooked with a hard bite? Was the texture even throughout? Or was it a blend of some mashed, some whole legumes?

2. Convenience 

Do these need to be heated and drained in separate cookware?

3. Freshness

Dark spots, mods, mottled skin, strong unusual smells are indicators of spoiled beans. 

We gauged the pre-boiled rajma across these sub-parameters for its freshness. 

Taste and texture, together, are an indicator of freshness.

Is this a value for money product? What about the packaging? The shelf life, ingredients used?

Urban Granny Easy Cook Rajma – Detailed Review

We received a sturdy beige and mustard-colored carton. Inside the carton, there was an alumnium pouch that was sealed. The carton also had an instruction card. 

It held 375 grams of rajma and was priced at Rs 125/-. The shelf life is 1 year.

Main Ingredients

Rajma (chitra), water, common salt, natural flavoring condiments (clove, cinnamon, black cardamom, star anise).

This contains no added colors or preservatives. 

How we made our Rajma Curry

We followed the instructions provided on the card. For this, we prepared our regular gravy with some onions, tomatoes, ginger-garlic paste, ghee, and cumin. 

Then we added the pre-boiled rajma with some water and let this simmer for around five minutes. 

This was served hot with rice.

Taste + Texture

The chitra rajma beans were cooked to perfection. It was a mix of whole and mashed beans. The whole ones had a nice bite and the mashed beans added a thickness to the gravy. The type of rajma used by Urban Granny was commendable. Large and squishy, these had a desirable texture.

In terms of taste, the beans were fresh. There was no stale or rancid flavor/aroma. They took on the flavors quite well too. 

Overall Experience

Full marks on convenience! The entire dish took around 20 minutes to come together. Looking at the final quantity, this is good enough for nuclear families or three whole servings. Pocket-friendly and easy to make, Mishry gives Urban Granny Easy Cook Rajma a thumbs up.
