It didn't turn out as good as I thought it was I was hoping for more of a kick!  That is ok though it was still really good and next time I will add some more spices.  I did add about a teaspoon of curry to this though.  I ate it with tortilla chips yum!

Soya sauce - 1/4 tsp
Rajma/Kidney bean - 1 Cup(Boiled with salt)
Oil - 3 tsp

Powders
Red chilli powder - 1 tsp
Turmeric powder - 1 tsp
Salt to taste

Directions: 
1. Heat oil in a kadai.
2. Add minced garlic, fry for 2 minutes, then add onions.
