Ingredients

  • 3 taco shells
  • 1/2 cup rajma / kidney beans I used the jamun rajma variety
  • 1 onion medium sized
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper powder
  • 1 teaspoon jeera
  • 2 tablespoon tomato sauce
  • 3 tablespoon cheese
  • salt for taste
  • 1.5 teaspoon olive oil

Instructions

  • Soak rajma in water overnight for at least 6-8 hours. Pressure cook rajma until soft. Set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in a pan add jeera allow it to crackle.
  • Then add onions, saute till slightly browned.
  • Then add the cooked rajma, pepper powder, tomato sauce, required salt and mix well.
  • Once the rajma is well blended and is saucy, switch off.
  • Sprinkle lemon juice and keep aside. Kidney Bean Salsa is ready.

Now to assemble the tacos with salsa :

  • Take a tacos shell, add a heaped spoonful of prepared kidney bean salsa to it.
  • Grate the cheese to cover the salsa and sprinkle little pepper powder.
  • Microwave it in high for 1minute – this was mentioned in the carton.
  • In my OTG I kept in bake mode and baked for 2mins at 200deg C till cheese slightly starts melting.
  • Enjoy the mexican tacos with salsa – hot and cheesy, yummm!!

Notes

  • You can also add chunky tomato pieces, lettuce or even capsicum for the salsa.
  • The variation is endless you can also garnish it with coriander leaves
  • Adding bean is purely your choice – You can also add corn with any bean of your choice in the salsa.
