I recently picked a packet of fresh lilva beans from chinese store, eventhough they are frozen..i love this green lilva beans very much and havent had them since a long,needless to say that i was very happy to get this rare precious lilva beans..I wanted to make them as curries or either gravies,finally i went to prepare them as varuthu aracha sambhar along with some tomatoes, both together works out wonder and the picture itself will say how tasty this gravy was..Since i prepared a special spice powder for making this sambhar it doesnt need sambhar powder and the taste was totally different from the usual one..Yep as usual i tried adding some different spices to prepare the special spice powder for this gravy in which i have added some anardana seed powder to give them a slight tanginess..We enjoyed this sambhar with papads and rice, loved it...Sending to CWS-Hyacinth beans guest hosted by Siri.
