From what I've read, you're supposed to cook the red kidney
beans until they are very soft, which I guess would also make
the thick skins not a problem. If I like the cannellini bean
version, I'll try it some day with the correct beans.

I don't think the thick skin ever is not a problem. You just
get very soft beans with a thick skin.

My rajma-ish cannellini beans are really good! But don't tell
twosleevers (Urvashe Pitre), the very reliable food blogger
whose recipe I'm using and slightly abusing. I only changed two
things: cannellini instead of red kidney beans, and waaaay less
cayenne than called for as we are heat weenies. Really nice
flavor, creamy (but vegan), just generally very satisfactory.

Two Sleever's Indian recipes are always reliable. Have you tried
anything from Priya Krishna's Indian-ish? That's my other go-to.
I find their recipes much more to my taste than the OG.

I need to check out Indian-ish ASAP! Thanks for recommending.
eta: What's the OG?

I see that Indian-ish is a cookbook and not the name of her
blog, in fact she apparently has no blog.
I have some Indian cookbooks plus about 50 other cookbooks, none
of which I crack open any more. I acquired them starting in 1965
and up to about 10 years ago. Back then I was happy to spend an
hour leafing through cookbooks, but all my recipes now come from
google searches or from various publications' on-line food
sections. I copy and paste them into Word docs.
The ease and convenience of this method are so much greater than
what I used to do that the thought of acquiring another cookbook
makes my eyes roll. I just can't do that anymore.

Totally understand! Quite a few of the recipes have been
published by Bon Appetit, NYT, and a few other places. I just
search by her name.
OG = old guard

Heddy, I did search on her name and came across 3
wonderful-looking recipes that I want to try:
Spinach with Feta Cooked Like Saag Paneer
Chickpea Flour Green Beans
Caramelized Onion (Urad) Dal
I have everything needed for the 2nd two recipes. A neighbor
just gave me about a pound of green beans from their garden, so
that one would make sense to do first. Mmmm, new recipes, yum!

I'll PM some other links tomorrow. I have the cookbook now
because I cooked — and loved — everything I found online :D
