Carrots/Beans Koottu


Posted the13/06/2009 By Akal's Saappadu (Visit website)



Another simple and quick-to-make vegetable side dish, with no spices at all, except the salt, and which may also be constituted as a main course to make a humble but healthy meal, the way I like it indeed, with some plain rice topped with some ghee or with Rice, Papads and a ladle of rassam or however you please.......

Ingredients:

2 onions
2 green chilies
100g of moong dhal (pacha payiru)
100g of Channa dhal (Kadala paruppu)
Salt to taste
100g shredded fresh coconut
200g Carrots
200g French Flat Beans
5 tbsp ghee
some coriander for garnishing

Method:

Prepare all the ingredients.

Pressure- cook both the dhals with a pinch of salt in 2 cups of water, until 3 whistles.

Chop the onions finely; deseed the green chilies and chop them into small rings.

Shred the coconut.

Peel the carrots and clean along with the beans and chop them into small pieces.

Heat the ghee (on medium heat) in a wok; fry the onions and the green chilies.

Add salt and then the carrots and the Beans and fry by sprinkling very little water if necessary; (we want it cooked but firm and crunchy)

Add the shredded coconut followed by the cooked dhals and stir it all together. Garnish with some fresh coriander leaves and serve hot.

Have a healthy meal!
