a Muse & Metric show @ SXSW (more by Tim Griffin)
Muse have their North American tour for this fall already plotted out. The first half will be opened by Passion Pit, and the second will be opened by Metric. For the NY-area shows in October, it'll be Metric. Those will happen October 23rd at Nassau Coliseum and October 24th at NJ's Prudential Center. Tickets go on WRXP presale Wednesday at 10am, and Fanclub presale starts at the same time. General sale starts Friday at 10am.
There are plenty of chances to see Passion Pit before then. And Metric will be in NYC too. They play a May 16th show at Terminal 5 with Bear in Heaven. Tickets are still on sale.
Metric's other upcoming shows include Europe in May and select dates of Lilith Fair. They recently shared a bill with Muse at SXSW. All Muse and Passion Pit tour dates are below...

"The 2010 Lollapalooza line-up is official: Soundgarden, Green Day, Lady Gaga, Arcade Fire, The Strokes, and Phoenix will headline, joined by Social Distortion, MGMT, Jimmy Cliff, Hot Chip, and The Black Keys. With 130 bands on this year's bill, its sure to be a weekend long feast for the ears.After extremely accurate early leaks and then much teasing, Lollapalooza oficially announces this year's lineup. Check it out below...
It's a monumental year for Lollapalooza, filled with homecomings, reunions, and first-times. Soundgarden, 1992 and 1996 Lollapalooza alumni, return to the Lollapalooza stage for their first performance since 1997. Green Day will rock Grant Park sixteen years after their first Lollapalooza appearance. While Lady Gaga will headline the festival only three short years after playing the BMI stage at Lollapalooza 2007.
Arcade Fire returns to Grant Park, having played the reincarnated Lollapalooza in 2005. This is the first Lollapalooza for The Strokes - and also their first show in four years. And making their Lollapalooza debut: Phoenix." - Lollapalooza

Metric @ Stubb's in Austin during SXSW (more by Tim Griffin)

One of the more mainstream "big" bills at SXSW was Muse with Metric at Stubb's on Friday night (3/19). It was Emily Haines' 2nd night in a row in the venue because she also performed with Broken Social Scene there. Our Friday day party at Club DeVille was right down the street. After cleaning up we left to find the line to Muse was blocks long (luckily we had no plans to go in). Tim was also at our Friday day party but had taken off earlier than us to make sure he got in in time to get the pictures that continue below...
SXSW 2010 day 2 in pics & review (Broken Social Scene, Sharon Van Etten, Olof Arnalds, Let's Wrestle, Band of Horses, more)
"I don't get to see these people. I don't see Leslie (Feist) any more. It's tough to see Amy (Millan) and Evan (Cranley) because they live in Montreal. Jimmy (Shaw) and Emily (Haines) have been on the road so much. They just came and we hung out in the studio for a few days in Toronto. Just to hang out was enough."SXSW Day Two startedd out for me with a performance by Sharon Van Etten who was heartachingly beautiful at St. David's Sanctuary. Sarah Jaffe and band followed - great folk/rock songs. Over at Stubb's Emily Haines and Jimmy Shaw guesting on "Anthems For A Seventeen Year Old Girl" with Broken Social Scene was the highlight of their show filled with new songs from the forthcoming record. Band Of Horses preceded and were great but their set was a bit short. Let's Wrestle (who didn't make it to NYC before Austin, but did make it to SXSW) during the day at Lovejoy's was loud and excellent. The Victorian Room at the Driskill Hotel was a perfect venue for Olof Arnalds and probably the most attractive setting for a show I've been to yet.
Broken Social Scene hasn't closed the door on collaborations, by any stretch. Metric's Haines and Shaw were invited onstage Thursday night to perform You Forgot It In People's show-stopping "Anthems For a Seventeen-Year-Old Girl," while stretches of the show featured a six-piece horn section, the Beauties acting as a sort of all-male chorus line and vocal contributions from Jason Collett. [Toronto Star]
Some pictures and commentary from SXSW Day 1 HERE. Pictures from Day 2 continue below...

They have summer festival appearances lined up too (Sasquatch, Pitchfork, their own Toronto fest), which are listed below.

NY Fashion Week kicks off (music events include Metric, Patti Smith, Nina Persson, Alberta Cross & more)
"There's nothing "normal" about New York Fashion Week, but if the incoming flood of models, designers, and celebs isn't cool enough, this might just make you gasp:Metric and Patti Smith play the LnA party. The Cardigans' Nina Persson appears at the Peter Jensen party on Valentine's Day. That's the setlist (invite?) full of covers above.
For LnA's first presentation in New York City, they're going all out, showcasing their trademark streetwear (including the famous, best-selling, NYLON approved Dani legging), while bringing along some special guests.
Besides a performance by Metric, LnA will have a special guest at their afterparty - Patti Smith. The singer, poet, artist, author, icon, fill-in-the-blank will appear onstage at Milk Studios during LnA's big Manhattan bash." [NYLON]
NYC band Preacher and the Knife have been "chosen to perform at famed designer Cynthia Rowley's runway show during NY Fashion Week, next Friday, February 12th at Gotham Hall. The band will also be performing on February 14th at the Cake Shop for'"Panache & Cake Shop's V-Day Love In.'"

"This is an epic time for Metric! Fantasies has achieved Gold status in Canada within the first few weeks of its release and it is thanks to the incredible support of our loyal fans. Since the release of Live It Out in 2005 the music industry has been in decline; it seems everyone's sales have suffered a lot since then. To have surpassed our previous album sales so dramatically in such a climate is an astonishing feat and we are so grateful to every single person who has believed in us and made it possible. Our way of doing things has always been unconventional and we took a massive risk in self-releasing Fantasies all over the world outside Canada. We're getting an overwhelmingly positive reaction from listeners around the globe and are so excited to bring the Metric love to all corners of the earth. We gave it our all and the world is magically giving back." - Emily Haines, MetricMetric are currently touring the United States in support of Fantasies. Last night that tour hit a very packed Terminal 5 in NYC (6/17). It was probably Metric's biggest headlining NYC show to date, which may explain Emily Haines getting all nostalgic about things like going to Fez (RIP).
Smile Smile opened the show with an early 7:30 pm set. Then came a rockin' set by former DFA79 member Sebastien Grainger and his band The Mountains. They're touring with Metric in the US. Metric's headlining set was heavy on the new Fantasies material. That was a good or bad thing depending on who you talk to. More pictures from the show, Metric's new video, and the rest of their tour dates, below...

Metric's first album in four years, the highly anticipated Fantasies hits store shelves tomorrow.
The week's release list is filled with quality music, Bill Callahan's Sometimes I Wish We Were an Eagle and The Handsome Family's Honey Moon are already among my favorite releases of 2009. From the albums that have already crossed my path, I can also strongly recommend Ida Maria's Fortress Round My Heart, Papercuts' You Can Have What You Want, Pomegranates' Everybody, Come Outside!, and Wooden Shjips' Dos.
The most interesting music release of the week may be Easy Star All-Stars' Easy Star's Lonely Hearts Dub Band, a dub remake of the Beatles' classic album.
Lights in the Attic follows its critically acclaimed (10.0 at Pitchfork) reissue of Serge Gainsbourg's Histoire de Melody Nelson with two Monks releases, the remastered Black Monk Time (with bonus tracks) and a reissue of The Early Years: 1964-1965. Other reissues of note include Beck's remastered One Foot in the Grave and two remastered Dukes of Stratosphear discs, 25 O'Clock and Psonic Psunspot.
What new releases can you recommend? Have I left anything off the list?

some of Metric @ Union Pool in September (more by Kyle Dean reinford)
Following 2005's [album] Live It Out, Metric returns with their fourth full length studio album Fantasies. Written by the band in a farmhouse outside Seattle and by frontwoman Emily Haines while on a soul-cleansing sojourn to Argentina, Fantasies is a densely textured modern mix of psychedelia, electro, and rock with a "really big and really dreamy" sound, says guitarist/co-founder Jimmy Shaw.I think that mixing they're talking about happened back in September which is why Emily Haines was in town to play those Brooklyn shows at Union Pool. They'll be in NYC again this June, when Metric headlines the much larger Terminal 5. Tickets for the June 17th show go on sale Friday at noon.
Haines adds, "For me, the major influences on the record were the places we wrote it: Bear Creek, this utopian farmhouse studio, and then our own studio in Toronto, which definitely brought in the electro, dance and rock elements because the city feels so good right now and so many of our musician friends were around. And then for me, being in Buenos Aires, most of the songs I brought to this record came out of being in exile with just a piano and a guitar. And then in the final stages, mixing at Electric Lady in NYC brought everything around to where we first met Josh and Joules."
Fantasies will be available in the US April 14
You can pre-order Fantasies now at their site. Pre-orders include an "immediate digital download of 3 tracks, including the album version of Help I'm Alive PLUS two exclusive pre-order tracks: a cover of Pink Floyd's Nobody Home and the acoustic version of Gimme Sympathy."

As announced, Emily Haines played back to back shows at Union Pool in Brooklyn last night (Sept 7). The two Emily shows were followed by a third show where Emily joined former tour-mates Tall Firs on stage for a few songs. Ends up, the first two shows weren't Emily solo performances at all. She didn't even play one song off her solo album. Instead, she and Metric guitarist Jimmy Shaw played the new, unreleased 9-track Metric album in its entirety, acoustically, twice. They just finished recording it earlier that day - their reason for being in NYC. Both sets were identical and both ended with the older Metric favorite "Live it Out" - a song the crowd was invited to sing along to.
Future plans for Metric include releasing the new album in November or December, playing more stripped-down, full-album shows, and maybe even recording and releasing the acoustic live version. Kyle stayed for all three sets last night. The below pictures are a mix from all of them (and include the setlist aka the tracklist for the new album)....

I wasn't super excited for Saturday's All Points West daytime schedule, but I figured it would be at least fun to hangout at the main stage and see Chromeo followed by Metric followed by Animal Collective. Well...running late caused me to miss Chromeo and then a gigantic @#$@#%@#$ line to get into the park caused me to miss Metric which I guess is also partly due to running late since someone told me they walked right in an hour or two earlier. Metric also played a show the night before at Highline Ballroom. More APW pics below...

Osheaga (Vero.b)
Osheaga, the outdoor music festival in Montreal, celebrated its third birthday this weekend with a bevy of local acts, some emerging talent, and great live performers. Day one (Sunday August 3rd) of the festival was also one of the most hectic musical days in recent [Montreal] memory. The week long Francophone music festival, FrancoFolies, concluded the same day with a performance by former Osheaga artist Malajube, and Wolf Parade (another former Osheaga performer) finished a tour downtown with their first Montreal performance since the release of At Mount Zoomer....

Emily Haines, lead singer and synth player for Metric, gave a special girl power shoutout on Sunday ... to her Pro-One keyboard.More pictures from Coachella below....
"The Pro-One is one of those instruments, they're like a woman. You can't understand them, there's like 1,000 knobs, and it cries every time you touch it," she said as the temperamental Pro-One faltered on a song.
"I'm proud to be a girl! And I'm proud to play an instrument that behaves like an [effing] woman every show!"
Then after ordering the audience to tell the Pro-One they loved it, in unison, Metric launched into "Poster of a Girl." [San Diego Union Tribune]

Today is Harry Potter's birthday. In this family, we are all big Harry Potter fans. So, it stands to reason that we would celebrate the day. And celebrate we did! (Warning: Photo heavy post!)
First, the kids woke up to find their Hogwarts acceptance letters.
Messy desks and all, I'm surprised they could find the letters. Along with their letters that arrived via owl, they received a class schedule and all the materials they needed for the day:
Nimbus 2000's for Quidditch
House shirts & ties (Florida Chapter – aka, lighter than the jackets and robes, because HELLO, it's eleventy million degrees out there)
Feather dusters for cleaning the dormitories (yes, we still maintained our usual schedule of classwork and chores, but it was totally more fun)
Wands (they actually already had them, I had to search their dark rooms after they went to bed to find them)
Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans, ya know, for sustenance.
First on the schedule was Breakfast in the Great Hall, aka our dining room. But hey, that table my husband made for in there is big enough to be a Harry Potter table – see Table of Love post. Then, they had to clean their dorms. On Fridays we dust our rooms, so in keeping with our regular routine, I bought them feather dusters to use because they are so much more fun than dust rags. After that, we had to take Fluffy (aka BannerBoyDog) to the vet for his bath. I had thought about having the girls at the vet attach two more heads to him so when we picked him up he'd really BE Fluffy. But I just couldn't figure out the logistics of this. I know the girls there would have totally gone for it. They are really great over there.
THEN….The real fun began. The Sorcerer's Stone has gone missing! It was up to the Hogwarts students to help find it. But where do they start?
Here is the first clue:
A pile of words
Jacket of hordes
Take a quick look
In the place of the book
(I found this rhyme online somewhere)
This led them to the bookshelf where the next clue and their ciphers were located within the Sorcerer's Stone book. Which led to another clue and so on.
One clue that my bestie, Lala thought up for us was:
I might be big, I might be scary…
There's no doubt I'm very hairy.
In the story, I have three heads, but in reality
I just like to get fed.
Your clues haven't yet led you to the end.
First you must find man's best friend.
I thought that was so cute. She's a talented one! The next clue was hidden on the puppy's collar. It was supposed to be on Fluffy's (aka, Banner's) collar, but he was at the spa and unavailable. Good thing we had a back up dog to continue the search.
If you are interested in all the clues that we had, comment below and I can share the google doc with you.
Figuring out the clues.
What was lost, is now found! Great detective work by both of them. Little K was the one who actually found the stone.
After finding the stone, it was time for Quidditch practice.

Although the original plan of the book, the arrangement into twenty-six lessons, remains unchanged, the author has subjected the text to such revision as was necessitated by the increased and more exact knowledge of chemical physiology. The chapter on protein has undergone the greatest change, and is far more extensive than it was in previous editions. The sections relating to coagulation of the blood and to respiration have also been carefully revised. Many new illustrations are added, thus increasing the value of the book. The appendix is deserving of special mention, inasmuch as it details the use of apparatus which should be found in the laboratory of every practitioner.

Rajma-Chawal is a combination 'to-die-for'…the best Rajma (Kidney Beans) and Chawal (Rice) can be had at the obscure dhabbas* alongside the highways all over North India. That is where the truck drivers eat and trust me…that is the second best (ofcourse, right after our recipe!). Now which Punjabi (people from the state of Punjab) household will not admit to it being a comfort food. Try with some Raita or just plain yogurt…
Kidney Beans – 1 cup
Water – 4 cups
Salt – to taste
Turmeric Powder – 1/4 tsp
Green Chili – to taste (optional)
Oil – 2 tbsp
Onions – 2 medium, finely chopped
Ginger – 1 tsp, minced
Garlic – 1 tsp, minced
Tomatoes – 2 cups, puree
Salt – to taste
Turmeric Powder – 1/4 tsp
Cumin Powder – 1/2 tsp
Coriander Powder – 1 tsp
Chaat Masala – 1 tsp
Garam Masala – 1 tsp
Cilantro – for garnishing, finely chopped
1. Wash and soak the Kidney Beans in 4 cups of water overnight.
2. Put the Rajma in a pressure cooker, alongwith the water that you soaked it in.
3. Turn the flame on high and add in the Turmeric Powder, Some Salt and Green Chili.
4. Cooking time in the Pressure Cooker – 3 whistles, lower flame and cook for another 30 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, in a medium size pan on medium heat, add in the Oil.
6. Allow it to heat up and add in the Onions.
7. Add in a little Salt and cook till the moisture evaporates from the Onions. Stir frequently.
8. Add in the Ginger and Garlic, mix well and cook till the Onions start to brown.
9. Add in the Tomato Puree. Mix again.
10.Cook till the oil starts to seperate. Keep an eye on it and keep stirring frequently.
11.Add in Coriander Powder, Chaat Masala & Garam Masala.
12.Add in a little water (about 1/4 cup) to help mix in the dry spices and to prevent it from burning.
13.Cook for a couple of minutes.
14.Open the Pressure Cooker once the pressure has gone and add in the Rajma to the masala.
15. Make sure Rajma (kidney beans) is well cooked and should have opened up a bit.
16. Mix well and allow it to come to a boil again.
17. Add in some of the fresh Cilantro leaves and keep some for garnishing.
18. Serve over hot rice on a lazy sunday afternoon. Serves 4.
Some key points to making it a succesful Rajma experience-
-soak rajma overnight
-every cooker is different, so know your cooker. If it did not cook well, put the lid back on and cook it some more.
-believe it or not altitude makes a difference in cooking time.
-if you wat a smooth curry/gravy, just blend the onions and tomatoes very well (we love texture in the food so…)

hetal Says:

Hi Rizwana,
In a time crunch, you could use canned kidney beans. The biggest difference you will notice is in the gravy. You have to rinse the canned kidney beans to remove the starcy sauce that they come in. Therefore, you will not have the nice gravy as if you pressure cooked them with water. To make gravy, you will need to add water and that will dilute the flavor as well as the consistency of the gravy.
Also, some people swear that there is some "funny" smell and flavor in the canned beans.

Hi Francine,
Chat/Chaat Masala is a combination of various spices. It can be bought at Indian/South Asian grocery stores or at whole food/health/organic stores. And just FYI, it is a spice that does not need to be cooked. Needless to say, one of my favorites! Enjoy!

Sorry, we did forget to add the Cumin powder! It does go in along with the Coriander Powder!
You can make it in a regular pot/pan or even use a slow cooker. Make sure you soak the beans overnight! Very important.
Also, fresh tomatoes are the best way to go.

Hi Noor,
If they are wrinkled, they are still on their way to getting soaked (they need to be plump and then they are ready). A good rule of thumb for beans such as rajma and channas is about 8 hours (overnight). We would suggest you wait for a little while.
If you do not have any time, use this Quick Soak beans tip:
Hope that helps!

We are not big fans of the store bought ginger/garlic paste. We feel that it somehow has some strange background flavor. Also, when you add it to hot oil, it splutters all over the place.

I tried this recipe today. It came out very well.
When you give measurement for the ingradients, instead of saying 1 mediam onion , would you give the measurment in cups…like 1 cup minced/dices onion?
This helps us a lot to reproduce the same result that we saw in your video.
Thank you

Hi Hetal and Anuja. I am curious to know why you decided to use the pre-soaking water to cook the rajma in? It is recommended by many sources that once the beans are soaked, one should rinse and use fresh water to cook. This helps prevent flatulence. Now this may not be a concern with cultures that grew up eating dried beans.
Another matter which is controversial is not to add salt until beans are soft, otherwise they are tough and take longer to cook. Personally, I have added salt at the beginning and have not noticed any difference.
My recipe is very similar to yours but in my family we add 1/2 tsp of ajwain to oil, let it sputter and then add onion. I had never thought of adding chaat masala before. Nice twist. Great job ladies!
hetal Reply:
February 10th, 2010 at 2:56 pm
Hi Keerti,
In our families, we always used the soaking water because a lot of flavor is in the water. However over time, we have learned what you have mentioned about preventing flatulence. You are right, it is probably better to remove the soaking water and add fresh water to cook the beans.
We have also heard the controversy over pre-salting and post-salting beans. This may be an issue if you are cooking beans in a pot, but if you are using a pressure cooker to cook beans, adding the salt beforehand does not really affect the cooking time. For the larger beans (Kidney, Garbanzo, etc), adding the salt beforehand really improves the flavor as the salt has a chance to go all the way inside.

March 22nd, 2010 at 3:22 pm
I was making Rajma and decided to see your version. I first make the masala and then put everything into the pressure cooker add the water and cook eveything together at one time. I let the pressure on for 10 mins let the steam go and then open and simmer if needed. I feel the beans soak the spices and salt better this way. Besides, my punjabi mom in law taught it to me this way :)). Try the same method for chole and blackeye peas. Also try dried black beans for a change, it is quite nice.

I did cook Rajma yesterday as per your recipe. I did not know when to add the ginger garlic paste – My onions always seemed moist – how to know that onions are done ? And my onions never turned brown after adding ginger and garlic? And over all my content was really wet and not as dry as yours ? I think I added a lot of oil when I started ? Would it have been the mistake? Your content really was dry even after adding tomato puree – How is that? And how to prepare tomato puree at home? Can you say the difference between tomato puree and tomato paste ? And was it Jalapeno green chilli that you used when boiling rajma? OOh a lot of questions – I just wish I get the same rajma as yours the next time…. Thanks a lot for your help.

Hello Ladies,

Thanks beforehands for the clarification
hetal Reply:
May 7th, 2010 at 2:15 pm
Hi Roz,
Tomato paste is really thick and concentrated. Tomato puree is blanched, peeled tomatoes that have been deseeded and pureed. To make puree, mark an "X" lightly with a knife at the bottom of the tomatoes. Place them in boiling water (stove off) for 5 minutes. Remove them and place them in a bowl with ice water. The "X" will help you remove the peel easily. Cut them in half and remove the seeds. Grind.

I am evading or staying away from those veges because i do not know if they are high in purines. I can not eat meat of any kind because of purines (PURINES ARE URIC ACID FORMING FOODS) issue, so i resorted to always eating vegetables since 8 years ago.

Can you please give me more guidance in how to make them in a slow cooker? I know I would make the masala in another pan but when do I add it to the rajma in the slow coooker and how long do I cook it after I have added the masala on the slow cooker?

I have to soak my dry beans overnight before placing them in the slow cooker. I prefer the pressure cooker to the slow cooker for bean dishes because I can see right away if it is soft enough and then it is quick to fix the problem. But I like my slow cooker very much for meat dishes and soups that don't have beans.
hetal Reply:
September 17th, 2012 at 4:22 pm
Hi K,
Yes, pressure cookers are very convenient and big time savers. Just a note…kidney beans should not be cooked in a slow cooker as they require a certain amount of high heat cooking to eliminate some toxins that are present. You can always add precooked kidney beans to a slow cooker.

Hi Shail,
You can use either…we use what we have on hand. As a rule, you can use canned tomatoes when you want the color of your curry to be very red and intense. In the case of Rajma, they are already pretty red so canned is not necessary but optional.

You can double everything however, we suggest that you reduce the amount of water to 5-6 cups while pressure cooking the kidney beans (unless you have a very large pressure cooker). You can always add in more water later.

Hi ladies,
Just started visiting your website and your videos. Thankyou so much for the wealth of recipes and knowledge.
I have a question that applies to all the dishes you have shown with a pressure cooker. You call for "x" no. of whistles. Would this not be specific for the pressure cooker you are using and be different for different brands? Would a cooking time be more helpful. Appreciate your response as it would directly impact the recipe.
hetal Reply:
January 7th, 2011 at 12:34 am
Hi Rashmi,
Between the 2 of us, we must have around 8 pressure cookers, all different brands. We have noticed that the number of whistles stay the same for all similar sized cookers. We do have a large cooker that does not have separate whistles but whistles continuously. In that, we count one minute per whistle. Though many American pressure cookers note the amount of pressure in pounds, Indian cookers do not — so its hard to say.

I think it's a very simple recipe, mostly meant for novice cooks and non-Indians. I say this when I think that the simplest food is usually the most comforting and wholesome but in this case, being a Punjabi myself, I think your omission of khada garam masala is an egregious mistake taking away from the meaty flavour of Rajma. Also, Chat Masala should only be used right at the end rather than being put through the heat of intense cooking. Too basic a recipe and not any innovation in it to make it yours at all. You two make good business women though.

Hi H&A,
I was going through your recipe and found it to be almost identical to the one my mother-in-law handed to me (I swear by it). I had one question though – I have heard of people adding fresh cream to Rajma to make the gravy nice and thick. Would you recommend it? If you do then I'd definitely want to try it out. And please mention how much quantity would be appropriate. Thanks a bunch!
P.S. Hope you guys are having a great summer with your families!

Hi Mashhuda,
Yes, you can definitely add cream to rajma. It will make the texture rice and creamy. The amount really depends on you and how creamy you like them to be. Add a little at a time and taste until you get it perfect. You will have to add it as a final step and then just heat through – do not boil.

Hi Anuja and Hetal..
Am so happy am learning cooking thru your website.
my husband is very happy and delighted with my cooking..
I was watching this recipe of kidney beans.. how long should it soak ??? 5 hours or 6 hour what is the specific duration. because if i soak in the morning will it be fine ??
hetal Reply:
August 30th, 2011 at 1:42 pm
Hi Caroline,
The larger beans like kidney or garbanzo takes approximately 6-8 hours of soaking time (longer is okay too, it will not spoil them).

thanks a million

Hi Caroline,
The basic masalas are turmeric, coriander and cumin powders. Garam masala can be substituted with whole cloves, cinnamon, black pepper, cardamom (can grind at home). Chaat masala has a lot of different salts and spices so it will be hard to substitute. You can try black salt (if you find it) or dry mango powder (amchur).

Yummy …tasted the best I ever had! Only one thing by mistake I added the tinned Rajma directly including the water from the tin and did not rinse the beans. The curry looked and tasted good….so I ate this. It is now 2 days and no side effects. Is it bad? Since the texture of the curry turned out nice and thick and creamy I wanted to ask why throw the water from the tin and rinse too? Another thing for pureed tomato I took a shortcut – just grinded 3 tomato with water. On whole it was just …WOW!!
hetal Reply:

Hi Sarika,
Glad you enjoyed the Rajma. The liquid in the canned kidney beans isn't necessarily bad for you but it makes the texture a bit gooey. Also, some people believe that the liquid is gassy.

Hetal and Anuja,
I'm Cajun. Having tried this recipe a while back I think I like Rajma Chawal even more than Cajun Red Beans and Rice!! My pressure cooker is aluminum, doesn't whistle, and apparently the last time I moved I hid it from myself. I ended up using a crock pot for most of the cooking. The Rajma took about four hours on high. I ordered a pressure cooker today that looks just like the one in this video, except the pressure release valve is all stainless. I'm looking forward to giving it a workout with many of your recipes.
Kevin Reply:

Speaking of pressure cookers, I forgot to ask a question in my initial post. While searching for info on whistling pressure cookers on the 'net I came across a site that said one isn't supposed to count the first whistle. But that one site was the only place I've seen that mentioned, and I haven't been able to find that site again. To y'all start counting at the first or second whistle?
hetal Reply:
November 3rd, 2011 at 10:45 pm
Hi Kevin,
We start counting on the very first whistle. When cooking rice in a pressure cooker, the first whistle is all you need to hear.
hetal Reply:
November 3rd, 2011 at 10:44 pm
Hi Kevin,
Yes, pressure cookers are life savers for us! Just a bit of caution about cooking Rajma in a crock pot. Some people say that kidney beans release some type of toxin if not cooked in a certain way and are not a good choice for cooking in a crock pot. But…guess you have your new pressure cooker by now to play with :). Good luck!

Hi Hetal and Anuja,
I have a serious question regarding the type of rajma beans to use. In India (Punjab), my mother used to make rajma with the beans that look like borlotti beans that you get here in Australia (or US for that matter). I have grown up on those rajma and always loved them. However, here in Australia, I have been buying other beans. Lately, I have been using the maroon coloured beans (dark red). I must say that I have been disappointed with my rajma. I find that maroon coloured beans are almost a little bitter in taste, remain stiff and are not creamy at all. They just don't blend with the gravy. The gravy was beautiful but the beans were not tasty. So they kind of kill the rajma.
Please suggest which beans I should use for the best taste.
hetal Reply:
October 12th, 2012 at 3:07 pm
Hi Guddi,
Unfortunately, we don't get a choice in the variety of kidney beans available here in the US. The Indian store carries only the maroon dark red type. Is it possible that maybe the beans you got were old? The best way to get the creamy texture is to pressure cook them for about 2 whistles and reduce the flame to a simmer and continue cooking for about 45 mins.
Guddi Reply:
October 31st, 2012 at 3:37 am
Hi Hetel,
I made the last rajma with borlotti beans. I liked rajma better with borlotti beans, though my husband prefers the red beans. I don't think the red beans that I use are old. I will try and buy the red beans from a different place next time and see if that makes a difference. Your idea of adding chaat masala is great. I did not have chaat masala, so added dahi wada masala. It gave a 'zing' to the rajma

Can you freeze this? What do you suggest for reheating?
hetal Reply:
October 18th, 2012 at 3:54 pm
Hi Gita,
Yes, you can freeze rajma. Either move it to the fridge the night before to defrost or use the defrost button on your microwave. Once defrosted, you can transfer it to a regular pot and heat it on the stove or heat it in the microwave it self.

hetal Reply:
February 21st, 2013 at 4:30 pm
Hi Srinivas,
Rajma must be soaked for at least 6 to 8 hours BEFORE pressure cooking. I have never tried pressure cooking rajma without soaking.

I have been trying for a while now to find a good curry recipe for beans…but it just doesn't come out good like in the restaurants…until I found this recipe! I just made it for dinner tonight and although I am not familiar with the true authentic taste of this dish, I must say I really enjoyed it with a side of eggplants :). Oh and I also had to leave out the chaat masala as I didn't have that on hand and also quadrupled the recipes and still enjoyed it :). I just want to thank you ladies for such a wonderful recipe!

This recipe was absolutely delicious! My pressure cooker doesn't whistle, but the directions say cook for 3 minutes. I did simmer it for an extra 30 mins, which was maybe a little much, so next time I will decrease that to 15 minutes. Regardless, I loved this dish!

Sprinkle fresh thyme or minced dill, oregano, or tarragon over your asparagus pastry.
Skinny purple stalks are snaking through the straw covering, and fat green spears are poking up too. Asparagus time is a reason to celebrate. I never got the hang of the pale, lavender-white ones, but the green ones — fat or skinny — are the center of several of my favorite spring meals.
They are a spring treat that's so easy to prepare. In a colorful Asian style stir-fry or still crunchy in risotto, nestled in an egg-y quiche or pureed in a creamy soup, asparagus are both distinctive and flexible in flavor, taking happily to many different seasonings.
If you've spent a day outdoors cleaning up the garden or lugging home farmers market booty, this savory asparagus pastry will impress with little effort. The ass-pa-grass don't even have to be cooked first. Also, because the puff pastry is baked before you sprinkle on the cheese and place the asparagus spears, it stays very crisp and flaky. The cheese can vary to your liking, but I wouldn't go any gooier than Gruyere. I used Locatelli and Crotonese because that's what I had around.
You might try the same trick with other vegetables, such as thinly sliced onions or leeks now or mixed peppers later this summer. The recipe here has no seasoning beyond salt and pepper, but fresh thyme or minced dill, oregano or tarragon, when sprinkled over the finished pastry, would be yummy. Try adding a drizzle of hazelnut oil and chopped hazelnuts, too.
Asparagus stalks will crack off where they begin to be tender; all you have to do is bend them. Still, the piece that breaks off usually has a nibble or two left on it to reward and motivate the cook.
Asparagus PastryServes 4
Heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Carefully open the puff pastry on a floured board, pressing the seams flat. Trim a ½-inch-wide strip from each edge, and stack the strips on top of each edge, crimping with a fork to form a frame. Pierce the whole sheet with a fork. Place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicon sheet. Bake 12 minutes or until golden. If the pastry has puffed up too much despite the piercing, gently press it down with a fork.
Cool a little, and then strew the cheese inside the frame. Arrange the asparagus in a single layer over the cheese. Brush the asparagus spears with oil and season. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until the spears are tender.

Our experienced team can also help with personalised tips for you.
Andrea Busato recommends Bar Lehel, just a stone's throw from the hotel, and the French restaurant Le Barestovino.

Concierge Jan Gartz suggests you visit to the Residenz Museum where you can view the works of art displayed in the Treasury. But no trip to Munich would be complete without watching the Town Hall clock on Marienplatz. For the best views of the Munich skyline he suggests you climb to the top of the Olympic tower at night.
The 'Wiener Platz' is a hidden gem when it comes to shopping and dining and is highly recommended by concierge Robert Malinski. You will find numerous shops and restaurants which have been there for generations.

Michelle Asks:
I was wondering what you would suggest for treatment for croup. My son has had it twice this year and both times the doctor prescribed steroids. Is there any other treatment for croup? Thanks!
What is Croup?
Croup is classified as an Upper Respiratory Infection and is generally caused by a virus. The symptoms of croup are classically runny nose and cough. The cough is very characteristic and sounds "barky" or "seal-like." In most kids, these are the only symptoms they will have and we call it mild croup.
In rare situations croup can be more serious, in which case we call it moderate or severe croup. The definitions of moderate and severe croup vary but most people would agree that moderate and severe croup are characterized by stridor. Stridor is a high-pitched noise that your child makes when taking a breath. Click on the video below to see a child with stridor.
What really gets us doctors concerned is what we call Stridor at Rest. This means that your child is making this stridor noise even when they are NOT crying and upset. It is common for children who are really upset and crying to make the stridor noise, but it should only last as long as the crying lasts and completely resolve when the crying resolves. Kids who have stridor at rest need to be seen by their doctor or in the ER if your doctor is not available.
Why Does Croup Make it Hard to Breathe?
Croup tends to cause irritation in the back of the throat around the area of the vocal cords and down in the trachea (the tube that leads from your mouth to your lungs). When the swelling in this area is mild, you get the "barky" cough. If the swelling is more severe you get stridor and may have difficulty breathing.
What are the Treatments?
There are two different types of treatment: home-based treatments and medical treatments.
Home-based treatments
One classic home-based treatments is taking your child into the bathroom with the shower turned on. The rationale is that the warm steam produced by the shower helps with the swelling in the throat. However, when doctors have studied this by giving children in the ER warm humidified oxygen, it does not seem to make a huge difference. Regardless, many parents swear by this technique and I often recommend it to my patients.
The other classic home-based treatment is taking your child outside into the cool air. The rationale is that the cool air will reduce some of the swelling in the back of the throat. Again many parents swear by this and I often recommend it to my patients, but there is no hard evidence to suggest that it works.
So if your child is making the stridor noise you can attempt these things at home. If things are not better after a brief trial of the home-treatments, then a trip to the doctor or ER is in order.
Medical Treatments
There are really two medical treatments for croup – breathing treatments and steroids.
The breathing treatments (called racemic-epinephrine) are different from those that kids with asthma use. The medicine in the racemic-epinephrine treatments reduces the swelling in the back of the throat and will almost always make the stridor go away. The problem with the breathing treatments is that they are only temporary. They last about 2-4 hours and then the swelling comes back.
So we also give steroids (usually Decadron) when we give the breathing treatments. The steroids last 18-36 hours and in most cases will prevent the stridor from coming back. There is no real benefit to giving the steroids in a shot, unless you just cannot get your child to take them by mouth. In my experience, I almost never have to give the shot.
But What if my Kid just has Mild Croup (No Stridor)?
This is the real question. Kids with stridor and trouble breathing are sick and need medication. But what about the kids that just have the "barky" cough and no stridor? Do they need steroids to prevent the stridor?
Well, a group of researchers asked this question and published their results in the very well-respected New England Journal of Medicine. This is what they found…
Children with mild croup who were given steroids:
- Were less likely to return to the doctor. If you did not get the steroids there was about a 15% chance you would go and see your doctor again. However, even if you did get the steroids there was still about a 7.5% chance you would go back to the doctor.
- Had quicker resolution of symptoms (barky cough). Kids that got the steroids had fewer symptoms in the first 24 hours. However, almost all kids were better at 72 hours whether they got the steroids or not.
- Got more sleep. Kids given steroids got, on average, 1.3 hours more sleep at night probably on account of the fewer symptoms mentioned above.
- Had parents that were less stressed. When parents were asked about their stress and given a score based on their response, there was a tiny difference in stress levels that favored using steroids.
However, these are not what I would consider significant outcomes. In this study, NONE of the kids who did not receive steroids got sick enough to be admitted to the hospital or had any other bad outcome. In fact all kids got better whether they were given steroids or not – most after only three days.
So you might ask, why not just give the steroid? To that question I say – steroids are potent immune-suppressing medications. They actually make it harder for your body to fight infections. They have a long list of very nasty side-effects. It is true that they do reduce swelling, and in the case of severe croup with stridor, they are probably a very good idea. However, I am not so sure that they are indicated in cases of mild croup just so that your child can get one extra hour of sleep. Of course that is just my opinion. For you and your family… You Decide.

Ben Arfa, 28, has enjoyed a spectacular return to form, scoring 11 goals in Ligue 1 and making two more while helping Nice to third in the table.
Nice are expected to have difficulty hanging on to the former Hull and Newcastle attacker at the end of the season and Ben Arfa told Onze Mondial this week that "the door is always...
