I came across this really simple recipe at Sra's and immediately wanted to try it with the beans I had lying idle in my fridge. I had only about 10-12 beans so added more toor dal than in her original recipe. The taste was very similar to beans parippu usli but the broad beans gave it a slightly different look and flavour.
Avarakkai Paruppu Curry Recipe
Ingredients:
Broad beans / avarakka - 12
Toor dal - ½ cup, soaked in water for 30 mins
Chopped garlic - 6 pods
Red chillies - 4, broken into 1" pieces
Jeera powder - one pinch
How I Made It:
1. Boil the beans in some water till tender. Leave aside.
2. Temper mustard seeds in little oil and fry the chopped garlic till brown. Add the chillies and jeera powder.
3. Mix in the beans and toor dal and fry well for another 3-4 minutes. Add salt and remove from fire.
It was really yummy with some tangy rasam. Quick to make with minumum ingredients - my kind of recipe 🙂 Thanks Sra!
