Green Beans Fry

Ingredients

• 4 cups green beans (French), finely cut
• 1 1/2 cups onion, finely chopped
• Cumin seeds (jeera), a few
• Mustard seeds (rai), a few
• 4-5 curry leaves (optional)
• 1 red chilli, broken into 2 pieces
• 1 1/2 tsp red chilli powder (adjust to taste)
• Turmeric powder, a pinch
• Asafoetida powder (hing), a pinch
• 5-6 tsp vegetable oil
• Salt to Taste

Preparation

1. Put the beans in a microwavable bowl, sprinkle some salt and water, mix, and microwave for about 5 minutes or until tender. Or boil the beans separately with enough water. Drain any excess water from the cooked beans.
   
   
2. Heat oil in a shallow nonstick skillet or wok. Add the asafoetida, cumin, and mustard seeds, and fry until the seeds start to pop.
   
   
3. Add the chilli pieces and fry for a second. Add the curry leaves, turmeric powder, and onions. Sprinkle some salt and stir. Cover and cook on medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes until the onions are cooked and browned.
   
   
4. Remove the lid and add the beans. Stir-fry on medium-high heat for 2 minutes.
   
   
5. Add the red chilli powder and some salt if needed. Saute until the pieces are browned.
   
   
6. Serve the green beans fry hot with hot rice and ghee (clarified butter).
