Saute'ed veggies are
always an important part of a Kerala meal, it's safe to say it's universally
preferred and today I have prepared the same using Achinga Payar. Famously
known as Yard long beans, this veggie is a hot hot favourite in Kerala. The
flavours incorporated into this dish are green chillies, onions, coconut pieces
and coconut oil. Of course, you can play with the flavours as you like, some
use different varieties of chillies either green or dry red chillies which
alters the flavour slightly.
I have made some this
afternoon in a very simple way and I will show you more ways of saute'eing this
lovely vegetable in later posts. Hope you enjoy this simple dish. Have a good
day.
