French beans are one of my favorite vegetable. I really like them in noodles , spaghetti and also in mix vegetable. But today i prepared the french beans with potato, the stir fry style. My mom prepares the beans curry which is always the best. I really like the beans curry gravy with chapati and rice.
My mom's kitchen garden bean plants where like super plants. On a plot of 2 meter square they yielded like 2 to 3 kilo grams of beans per day. Everyday i plucked them and i would also pluck some tender ones with a thought that the next day these plant doesn't make me work again so much. But to my dismay i had to just keep plucking them the other day also.I just miss my good old days and those super plants. Now i don't even get to see kitchen garden any more. These days like all i head to the supermarkets and grab a kilo of them at an obvious high rate.
Anyways lets take a look at the recipe.
Serves- 4
Preparation time- 5 minutes
Cooking time - 15 to 20 minutes
Total time- 25 minutes
Level of difficulty- Medium
Ingredients:
Serve hot with chapati or as a side dish with rice.
Enjoy!!!!! and Happy Cooking.
