    Beans Potato Avial Recipe

    In our house probably we will have avial twice a week. Each time amma makes this with different vegetables. Some day she will make tomato avial or drumstick avial or yam avial and many more. Each time the flavours will be completely different and unique. 

    About Bean Potato Avial Recipe

    Avial is an Indian dish that originated in the Indian states of Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and Udupi. It's a thick stew of 13 vegetables and coconut from the Western Ghats, seasoned with coconut oil and curry leaves.

    Today I am going to share my mums favorite avial using Beans and Potato. The vegetables are cooked in a spicy green coconut sauce. Totally delicious. I would advice you to make the tempering using coconut oil. Whenever you are making any dish that have some form of coconut in it. Try using coconut oil in that, because that enhances the flavour of the entire dish.

    Ingredients for Beans Potato Avial Recipe

    • Beans-15 cut into a inch size
    • Potato-3 cut into a inch size
    • Turmeric powder-1 tsp
    • Tamarind paste-1 tsp mixed with some water
    • Salt to taste

    Beans :

    They have more distinct colour and flavor think marbled skins, vibrant hues, and flavours ranging from earthy to mushroomy to meaty to nutty.

    Potatoes :

    It was introduced to India by Portuguese sailors in the early 17th century, and British colonists spread its cultivation to North India. The potato is one of the most important commercial crops grown in the country. Potatoes are high in fibre, which can help you lose weight by keeping you fuller for longer. Fibre can help prevent heart disease by
    maintaining healthy cholesterol and blood sugar levels. Potatoes are also high in antioxidants, which help to prevent disease, as well as vitamins, which help your body function properly.

    Turmeric Powder :

    The turmeric root is quite bitter, but has an almost citrusy taste, compared to the powder. Turmeric also has something of a sweet taste, and it is quite earthy. When you use the powder, you're unlikely to notice the texture unless you use a substantial amount, but it is somewhat gritty.

    1. Take beans, potato, turmeric and salt in a kadai.Add ½ cup of water and cook it covered on a low flame..It will take around 15-20 mins.
