Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Avarakkai (broad beans)
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 2 pieces Dried red chilies
- 10 leaves Curry leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.75 teaspoon Salt
- 3 tablespoons Grated coconut
- 3 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Rinse the avarakkai thoroughly under running water. Trim the ends and finely slice the beans into small pieces.
Heat the coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat.
Add the mustard seeds to the hot oil. Once they start to splutter, add the cumin seeds, dried red chilies, and curry leaves. Sauté them for a few seconds until aromatic.
Add the sliced avarakkai to the pan. Stir well to coat the beans with the spices.
Sprinkle the turmeric powder and salt over the beans and mix everything thoroughly.
Add the water to the pan. Cover and cook on low heat for about 10-12 minutes or until the beans are tender, stirring occasionally.
Once the beans are cooked, add the grated coconut to the pan and mix well.
Cook uncovered for another 2-3 minutes to allow any excess moisture to evaporate.
Serve the soy-free avarakkai poriyal hot as a side dish, accompanying rice or Indian bread.
