This simple recipe makes for an excellent Lunch idea with plain white Rice and Ghee. Known by various names, Asparagus Beans grows in any garden. Yard long Beans, Chinese Long Beans and Snake Beans are some other names this Vegetable is known by. They cook really quickly and are moist and crunchy at the same time and are rich in minerals like Magnesium , Copper , Calcium and Manganese.
As they get done so very quickly without much hassles, it's a go to dish of my folks especially during busy days. It makes for a complete meal that's healthy and nutritious. With any other Vegetable added to it, it becomes a great one pot dish for meals.

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.
