Ingredients
- 1 bunch long beans around 20 – 25 beans
- 1 medium red onion thinly sliced
- ¼ cup fresh coconut slices Can be substituted with store bought ones
- 3 - 4 small green chillies sliced
- ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
- ¼ teaspoon mustard seeds
- 3 tablespoon oil
- 1 sprig of curry leaves
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- To prepare the long beans, first remove the stem ends. Then use your hands to break them into 1” pieces. You will hear a ‘snap’ when it breaks. Alternatively, you can also cut them using a knife. Set aside.
- Now heat oil in a heavy bottomed pan, and add mustard seeds. When they pop, throw in all the other ingredients, and give it a good stir. Cover with a lid, and allow to cook. Stir occasionally so that beans won’t stick to the bottom of the pan. When half done, remove the lid. Leave it to cook until done.
- Serve hot with rice.
