Beans in Cocunut

As the mercury soars it becomes increasingly difficult to eat food. Spices is a big no no.
At such times to eat something light and healthy is the only option. Fresh tender french beans are in the market. I cook this in a very light, no spice, stir fry. Its light on the tummy and really yummy. It can be had as a warm salad if you don't want to eat rotis with it.

Ingredients:
  • 200 gms french beans.
  • 2 green chillies.
  • 6 tbsp grated fresh coconut.
  • 1 onion.
  • 4tbsp chopped coriander leaves.
  • 1tbs ghee.
  • 1tsp cummin seeds.
 
Method:
  • Boil the chopped french beans in salted water for 8mins, drain.
  • Heat 1 tbsp ghee, add the jeera and chopped onions, stir fry.
  • Add the grated coconut and let it brown slightly.
  • To this add the coriander leaves mix.
  • Place the warm cooked beans on a plate and spread the coconut mixture over it.

Eat as a vegetable with roti or phulka or as a plain warm salad all by itself.
