Broadbeans Stir fry with Maharastrian Ghati Masala

As mentioned in my previous post I am posting a simple stir fry using the Maharastrian Ghati masala.I chose to make something very simple with this masala so as to know the flavors of the masala in the curry.I have used broad-beans here,you can use any of the beans like french beans,cluster beans,yard long beans and you can even make carrots,beetroot,cabbage,gobi the same way.Now coming to the recipe..

Ingredients:
250 gms broadbeans
2 tsp Maharastrian Ghati masala
1/2 red chili powder(optional)
3-4 tsp roasted peanut powder
1 tsp chana dal
1 tsp urad dal
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
a sprig of curry leaves
1 tsp oil
salt to taste

Method:
  • Clean and wash the broad-beans and check for insects in it and then finely chop the broadbeans into 1/2 cm pieces.
  • Steam the chopped beans until they are soft but still crunchy.
  • Heat oil in a kadai and crackle mustard seeds and add urad,chana dal and curry leaves and fry until they turn light brown in color.
  • Add the steamed beans and add enough salt to it and mix well and cover it with lid and cook for 5-6 mins.
  • Add red chili powder,ghati masala,ground nuts powder and mix well and cook for 2-3 mins.
  • Remove it from fire.
Serve it with hot piping rice and dal/sambar.

Note:
I have used broad-beans here,you can use any of the beans like french beans,cluster beans,yard long beans and you can even make carrots,beetroot,cabbage,gobi the same way.
I am sending this to PJ's 'Flavors of Maharastra' event which is started by Naina.
