How To Make Beans Poriyal?
Beans Poriyal, a simple stir fry with fresh green beans and coconut. South Indian Lunch Recipes
Beans poriyal has always figured on my thali meals. I love making elaborate thalis replete with curries and dals. This simple beans poriyal is a stir fry that uses green beans and freshly grated coconut. It is a staple in many Madhwa and TamBrahm households.I recently realised that my blog has a lot of food areas uncovered. Well, the reason is i dont make something for the blog itself. I make what we only eat and even that has changed a million fold since i got married.But then there are some really quick(when i say quick, i mean it)recipes that i ve not thought of posting at all. Not until Mr.P promptly pointed out to me that i had left out all traditional madhwa delicacies.
As for this beans poriyal recipe, i dont know if its traditional madhwa but what i know is, ever since i ve been big enough to sit down and eat a meal on a banana leaf with the rest of the family on those special days, this stir fry has almost always taken its rightful place at the left hand corner of the elai. And i ve never once hesitated to stuff a mouthful of it and be bold enough to ask for a second helping. I must admit that i was one tiny tyrant who could turn all Norman Bates on people back when i was young.
Tuck in to this beans poriyal with some Tomato Rasam and steamed rice.I served it recently with bendekai gojju ( another madhwa special).

Simple is the new best! I always tell my hubby that too much masalas and spices don't really enhance the taste of food. I'm happy to see you cook the veg in microwave just like how I cook too 🙂 Same pinch 🙂
