Lobia Karahi (Red Kidney Beans With Tomatoes) Recipe

This simple dish of red kidney beans simmered in a spicy tomato base is found in every corner food stall in Peshawar. While the city is famous for its hearty meat dishes, it’s this affordable, filling, and delicious dish that students line up for during lunch. Saira Salman, who runs a popular catering business out of her home in Peshawar, shared her recipe. Although it is traditionally made with whole red beans soaked overnight and boiled until tender, canned red beans work just as well.
