Beans is commonly called as “phalli” and there are various varieties of beans in our country like cluster beans commonly called as “gavar ki phali”, another common beans variety is flat beans commonly known as “sem ki phali”.

Always beans tastes good if combined with potatoes and we mostly make all the beans recipes with potatoes.

There are many ways to make beans like beans fry, aloo beans recipe etc…which shall be updated soon as I keep writing many more recipes.

Aloo beans is a very good combination while making a curry or while making aloo beans fry.

In this post I have shared a very yummy curry that goes good with either of the main course recipes like roti or steamed rice and one does not need to make any main course dish like dal or curry.

This is a semi gravy recipe into which I have used tomatoes and onions and also I have given flavors of coriander leaves and methi leaves to enhance the flavor of the curry.

Points to remember while making the beans curry:

1. The curry can be slow cooked in a vessel and one needs to be patient for the beans and aloo to get tender.
2.  Only beans can be added and if one does not want to add aloo, it can be skipped.
3. The curry can be pressure cooked, but if given many whistles the curry can become mushy. Be careful while pressure cooking and just give 1 or 2 whistles.

Beans according to me tastes best when stir fried but we also prefer to make in the form of a curry that can serve to many.

Below are the recipe details where I have written step by step details on how to make this curry.
