    This a good combination in food.I love the combination of aloo and mochai which is also known as field beans and hyacinth beans along with some mild coconut masala. It taste great when mixed with hot rice and some ghee. My little one loves it. I was lucky enough to get my hands on these beautiful purple fresh mochai in my supermarket, immediately i picked one of those. If you cannot get fresh ones, you can make this with dried ones too..Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
