Ingredients
  

  • 500 Grams Green Beans
  • 2 Potatoes
  • 1 Onion Medium size, chopped
  • 2 Tomatoes Medium size, chopped
  • 1 Tbsp Ginger Grated
  • 2 Green chillies Chopped
  • 1 Tsp Cumin Seeds
  • 1/3 Tsp Asafoetida
  • 1 Tsp Coriander Powder
  • 2 Tsp Turmeric Powder
  • 1/2 Tsp Red Chilli Powder
  • 1 Tsp Salt As per taste
  • 1/2 Tsp Garam Masala Powder
  • 2 Tbsp Oil

Instructions
 

  • First of all, wash and cut off the crown and tail part of beans and then chop them into 1-1.5 inch pieces. Similarly peel and chop potatoes into cubes. Keep the size of potatoes to small as it helps in cooking faster.
  • Heat oil in a pan / kadai over medium heat and add asafoetida and cumin seeds. Once cumin seeds crackle, add chopped onion and sauté till they are golden. Add grated ginger, chopped chillies and coriander powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, chilli powder and salt. Sauté for a minute.
  • Add chopped tomatoes now, and mix. Cover the pan with lid and let tomatoes cook for 4-5 minutes till they are soft.
  • Take off the lid and add chopped beans and potatoes to it. Mix well so that tomato mixture is well mixed with beans. Cover the lid again and let them cook for 12-15 minutes on low medium heat.
  • Open the lid and give a stir. If they aren’t done yet cook further 5-7 minutes with pan being covered with lid again.
  • Take off the lid now and give them a good stir so that extra moisture evaporates and the vegetables get good roast.
  • Switch off the heat and transfer it into a serving bowl. Enjoy with rice or bread of your choice.

Notes

  1. You can use any oil in this recipe. However, I personally love to make this dish in mustard oil.
  2. Adjust the spice level according to your taste.
  3. Cut the potatoes to smaller size for them to cook quicker.
