    For the second week of Blogging Marathon # 18, I have chosen to do Dry
    sautés with vegetables. For all the healthy eating habits I talk about
    to my kids, I still remember my own childhood when I hardly ever liked
    vegetables. The only few that I liked were Arbi, plantain etc. Amma
    always used to have tough time getting me eat them. So whenever I talk
    to my kids, I always have a guilty conscience telling me exactly the
    same what I was saying.

    Anyway coming to the theme, for any Indian meal, the vegetables form the
    major part of the dishes. When you serve rice with a liquid dish, it
    becomes apparent that you will end up serving a dry vegetable subji as
    well. The poriyals or the vepudus as we call is a must as part of a
    thali.

    Though I have already made a poriyal with beans and carrot, this
    simplest one is far by the hardest in terms of getting the right
    consistency and taste. It might appear very simple and quick to make.
    Agreed it is easy to make, no doubt but getting the right consistency is
    all about still having the vegetables very crisp and doing the right
    amount of tempering and seasoning.

    Ingredients Needed:

    Beans - 1/2 cup
    Carrots - 1/2 cup
    Turmeric powder a pinch
    Salt to taste

    For the tempering
    Oil - 1 tsp
    Mustard Seeds, Urad Dal - 1/4 tsp
    Curry leaves few
    Green Chilies - 2 medium

    Fresh grated coconut - 2 tsp

    String the beans and peel the carrot. Chop into fine pieces. In a pot of water just enough to cover the vegetables, bring the vegetables to boil. Add the vegetables along with salt and turmeric powder. Make sure the vegetables it's just reaches the par boiled stage and not over cooked.

    In a non stick pan, heat oil, temper with mustard seeds, curry leaves, slit green chilies, when the mustard pops, add the boiled vegetables. Saute for couple of moments. Finally add the freshly grated coconut.
