Double Beans Subji / Porial

This has been one of my favorite dishes while growing up. However, I have not seen much of this in Hyderabad.. The other day I happened to chance upon a packet of these delicious beans and away they came home with me :) Here is how I made this yummy curry ..

Things I Needed : Ingredients:

Double beans 1/2 cup
Onion 1 no.
Turmeric 1/8 tsp
Curry leaves 1 sprig
Salt As needed
Coconut oil 1 tsp (optional)

To Grind:

Coriander seeds 1/2 tblsp
Coconut 2 tblsp
Red chillies 3-4 nos.
Garlic 1 flake
Black pepper whole 1/2 tsp
Jeera 1/2 tsp

To Temper:

Mustard 1 tsp
Urad dal 1 tsp
Oil 2 tsp

How I Made It :

• Soak the double beans overnight and pressure cook the next day,for 3-4 whistles.
• Cut onion length wise and keep aside.
• Grind the ingredients under the "To Grind" table,to a powder.
• Heat oil in kadai and add mustard,urad dal and then add curry leaves and onion,fry till onion turns out golden brown.
• Then add the cooked beans,salt and turmeric and fry in medium flame for 2 minutes.
• Add the ground masala powder and add enough water to the beans to make a gravy.
• Mix well and cook in low flame,till the water completely evaporates.Keep turning in between to avoid burning.
• Fry till the masala turns golden brown.
• If desired add coconut oil at the end and transfer to the serving bowl and Serve as accompaniment for rice.
