Oil-free, quick to rustle up, easy to find ingredients. Lobhiya ki phalli is also called Chauli or long green beans. Thoran is a dry vegetable preparation in South Indian cuisine that is minimally spiced and has a generous amount of freshly grated coconut. Vegetables cooked this way can even make a great snack.

Ingredients

  • Green long beans: 250 gms (chopped into even-sized tiny pieces)
  • Cold-pressed coconut oil: 1 teaspoon (optional)
  • Mustard seeds: 1tsp
  • Coconut: ½ cup (freshly grated)
  • Rock Salt: to taste
  • Red chilli: 1 no (cut into small bits)
  • Curry leaves: 1 sprig

Method

  • Place the cut long beans in a steamer and cook until soft but not mushy.
  • Heat a pan and roast mustard seeds, curry leaves and red chilli bits.
  • Stir in the steamed beans and add salt. Give it a quick stir.
  • Remove from fire and add grated coconut.
  • Serve hot garnished with more grated coconut and cold-pressed coconut oil.

Wellcure tip:

  • Adding raw cold-pressed coconut oil gives the beans a nice flavor.
  • While cooking vegetables, it's a good idea to use a little less salt to enjoy the actual flavours of the vegetables.

Eating guide:

  • Food group: Vegetables
  • Can be easily consumed during meals, combined with other food groups.
  • Lightly cooked/steamed veggies ensure the water content and enzymes are retained, both a must for good digestion and overall nourishment through food!
  • Mixing coconut to vegetables helps increase the satiety index of the meal.
