Ingredients
- 1 cup green beans 150g
- 1 green chili
- 1 clove garlic small
- 1 shallot
- ½ tablespoon coconut oil
- ½ teaspoon black mustard seeds
- ¼ teaspoon cumin seeds
- 4 curry leaves approx
- 1 pinch Turmeric
- 2 tablespoon water approx
- ¼ cup shredded fresh coconut 25g, or frozen defrosted
Instructions
- Trim the beans and cut into roughly ¼ inch (1cm) pieces. Finely chop the chili and garlic. Cut the shallot into thin slices, cutting larger slices in half or smaller.
- Warm the coconut oil in a medium-small skillet/frying pan over a medium heat then add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Cook for a minute to become fragrant.
- Add the shallot, cook a minute then add the garlic and chili and cook a minute more. Add the curry leaves and turmeric, stir to mix then add the chopped beans.
- Add the water, stir then cover the skillet/frying pan with a lid and reduce the heat to medium-low. Let the mixture steam and cook around 3-5 minutes to soften the beans. They should still have a slight bite but be cooked.
- Remove the lid, stir in the coconut then cook a minute or two more before serving.
