Beans Talaasan(Fry)
When you're bored of preparing the same old curry with beans, this is one easy way to try something different. Talaasan(with reference to dry curries) in konkani means something that is shallow fried in oil. This curry takes a little more oil than usual if it needs to taste good.
Time Taken: 20-25 minutes.
Serves about 2-3 people.
Ingredients Used:
1/2 kg of French Beans
5-6 cloves of garlic
2 red chillies
1/2 tsp red chilly powder
Salt to taste
2-3 tsp oil
Method of Preparation:
Wash the french beans and destring(defibre)it. If frozen slit beans are available you could use them as well. Cut each bean into one half and slit it longitudinally-it should look like what is given in the picture. Then, in a shallow bottomed pan, take oil and warm it. To this, add the red chillies cut into halves and slit garlic pieces. Stir for a minute. Then, add the red chilly powder and salt followed by french beans. Cover and cook on medium/low flame until done with very little or no water. Beans Talaasan goes very well with dal rice and as a dry sabzi with chapathi.
