A Green delight that goes well with Chapatis and Rotis. This is my way of frying Beans in Winters especially when Vegetables are available aplenty. Simple ingredients go into making this fry and tastes so good too. And to top it all, it's a great one for both Lunch or Dinner. And also a filling one for Breakfast as well. It's also a lovely option for Lunchbox ideas.
And it's easily done with minimum of pantry staples. This stir fry recipe is a flavourful dish full of the goodness of Winter Vegetables. Though it's made with Fenugreek Greens or Methi available throughout the Country. It will not compromise on it's taste. Infact it would be equally great and Fenugreek will add a different look altogether as well as make it more flavourful and aromatic. Beans with these Leafy Greens would definitely be a great option for a simple stir fry this Season. It can be a perfect choice for Breakfast and Lunchbox ideas.
Happy Cooking Folks!

Steps

25 minutes

1

Heat Oil and add Asafoetida and Ginger garlic paste to it. Fry for a minute or two.
Also, add the rest of the spices now. Fry for a minute.
And finally, add the chopped beans to it. Add salt according to taste and saute on a high heat for almost 10 minutes. Cover with a lid now and allow it to cook further without adding any water.
2

After almost 15 minutes, add roughly chopped fenugreek leaves. Mix well and garnish with coriander.
Serve hot with chapatis or phulkas. It goes well with boiled rice and khatti daal. Yum!
3

It's a no onion recipe but they can be added if desired. I do it both the ways. It tastes equally great and delicious. The crunch can be maintained and it depends on one's own choice. You can increase or decrease the cooking time meticulously. Enjoy!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
