Beans Carrot Aloo
Subji
This is one more mix vegetable recipe, stir fried and most
easy to make. The combination of beans, carrot and potato tastes very good. The
humble aloo(potato) goes well in combination with almost anything and
everything. I use Kanda Lasun(Onion Garlic) Masala for majority of my recipes.
Kanda Lasun Masala is an essential ingredient of Maharashtrian cuisine. It is a
dry masala with red chilly powder plus spices(garam masala) along with onion and garlic. So
also, groundnuts, you will see many vegetables having groundnuts in them in
various forms. If Kanda Lasun Masala is not available, use red chilly powder
instead. Here, I am using roasted groundnut powder.
French Beans- 250-300 gms
Carrots – 2 nos
Potato – 1 medium
Oil – 2 tablespoons
Turmeric powder – ½ teaspoon
Kanda Lasun Masala/Red Chill Powder – ½ teaspoon
Mustard Seeds – ½ teaspoon
Roasted groundnut powder – 3/4th – 1 cup
Salt – As per taste
Water – 2-3 tablespoons
Wash all vegetables clean and chop the beans finely. Peel the
carrots , remove the central core and chop finely. Peel potato and chop finely. Heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds.
Once the mustard seeds splutter, add potato pieces and stir well for a minute,
lower the heat and let the potato cook for about 2 minutes. Keep stirring
continuously, then, add beans and carrot, turmeric and salt.
If you feel water is required only then add just a little,
otherwise the vegetables will cook even without water. After cooking for about
3-4 minutes, add kanda lasun masala, groundnut powder and stir well. Groundnut
powder burns at the base of the pan, so constant stirring is required. Beans
carrot aloo subji is ready to be served.
Note
In place of roasted groundnut powder, you may use fresh
grated coconut.Kanda Lasun Masala - It is like Kolhapuri Kala Masala, a mix of red chilly powder+garam masala+onion+garlic. You get Pravin Company Kanda Lasun Masala(Ambaari Chaap) and many other companies too.
