Long beans Poriyal is one of my favourite from Amma's kitchen, a simple easy peesy recipe with her twist of adding ground coconut makes this a super tasting dish. Amma never fails to make vegetarian sides along with veg and non veg curry, meaning there is always a poriyal or stir fry everyday at home. Although I never had an issue eating vegetables when it comes to cooking for 2 hungry tummies and time crunch, I sometimes miss to cook a poriyal hmm I think I must make it a point to cook veggie sides more often like Amma. Ok back to long beans they are known for their rich source of dietary fibre and vitamin A.
