Indian broad beans / Avaraikkai Poriyal

Actually I eat almost all the veggie's and that how my mom raised me but the same does not applies for my H..He s so picky in everything ,and needless to say he hates this veggie..this is one veggie I would like to eat it with sambhar ,nothing can beat the combo of sambar and avarai poriyal,so matching matching and I love it. This time i got a chance to prepare this veggie and to say the truth,It was divine...I love it ..... This doesn't involve much preparation other than it's cooking time..
