Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Fresh green beans
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 3 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 2 teaspoons Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 400 milliliters Coconut milk
- 1 medium Tomato, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
Wash the green beans thoroughly and snap off the ends. Cut them into approximately 2-inch pieces.
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet or pan over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, which should take about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, and red chili powder. Stir well for 30 seconds to toast the spices.
Add the chopped tomato to the pan and cook until it softens and blends with the spices, about 3 minutes.
Pour the coconut milk into the pan, and then add the green beans. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cover the pan. Let it cook for about 15 minutes, or until the green beans are tender.
Season the curry with salt and lime juice, stirring well to combine.
Garnish the curry with fresh chopped cilantro before serving.
Serve the sugar-free green bean curry hot alongside rice or flatbread.
