Ingredients

  • 1 cup green beans sliced
  • ½ cup carrot julienned (You can also use grated carrot instead. But remember, it will cook much faster than beans)
  • ¼ cup grated coconut
  • 2 shallots chopped
  • 2 small green chilies roughly chopped
  • ¼ teaspoon minced ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon minced garlic
  • ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
  • ¼ teaspoon mustard seeds
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 sprig of curry leaves
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a heavy bottomed pan and splutter mustard seeds. Throw in curry leaves and shallots, and sauté.
  • When onion becomes soft and brown in color, add green chillies, ginger garlic paste and turmeric powder. Fry them for a few seconds and add in coconut. Again, fry the coconut until it just starts to change its colour.
  • Now you can add green beans and carrot. Don’t forget to add enough salt. Mix well, cover with a lid and allow it to cook. Stir occasionally so that the veggies will not stick to the bottom of the pan.
  • Serve with plain rice.
