valor muthiya-Broad beans /Hyacinth beans /Valor /sem ki phali is a seasonal vegetable.They are rich in fibre,vit A, Vit C, Vit K.

This bean is best combined with potato, brinjal and muthiyas. To make this valor muthiya nu shaak , deep fried fenugreek leaves and gram flour dumpling are cooked with broad beans and mild spices,this semi dry curry is served with bhakri or chapatis .

The most tiring or time consuming job is the cleaning of these beans.Broad beans should be de-string properly and then the pod should be opened to check the hidden worms.

      NOTE-
      1-You can also serve these fried muthiya as a snack.
      2-If fresh fenugreek is not available then can use some chopped spinach or coriander and kasoori methi.
      3-You can also add 3/4 cup chopped tomato at step 10.
      4-For a low fat version you can steam the muthiyas for 15 minutes, instead of frying in oil.
