Method

  •  Wash and chop beans. Take a deep pan and add oil. Add mustard seeds and jeera. Once mustard seeds start spluttering, add chopped onion, ginger garlic paste, dhaniya powder and turmeric.
  •  Add beans and salt. Cover with a lid and let it cook for 15 minutes. Lots of water will come out. Now remove the lid and start frying so that water gets evaporated.
  • The last step is adding besan or sanagapindi. Mix it well so that beans are well coated with the powder. Fry for 10 more min.
  • Garnish with chopped coriandar and serve hot with either chapatis or steaming rice.
