Guvar Vadi ki sabzi- A delicious curry made with cluster beans and lentil fritters

Guvar vadi ki sabzi – Guvar/ cluster bean is a summer special vegetable but now available in all seasons. Guvar ki phali is a healthy beans but is slight bitter in taste and takes little extra time to cook as compared to other beans.

It is always advised to boil or blanch guvar phali before cooking to reduce the bitterness. The edges should be trimmed and beans should be de- string before cooking.

Guvar phali is quite heavy to digest so it’s a good idea to add asafoetida, ginger and carom seeds in the curry ,which helps in digestion.

This Guvar vadi ki sabzi is quite a different and delicious combo. This curry is a specialty of Bhatia Cuisine and I learned this from a very good friend of mine. Fresh urad daal pakodis are made and added in the curry which gives a very nice taste and makes it healthier.

The guvar phali’s are chopped into medium size pieces and then boiled with some salt and turmeric. Then it is tempered with spices and water. After boiling the curry for some time then the  fried lentil vadas are added in the curry and is simmered till vada become soft.

For sourness you can add lemon juice or tamarind paste in the curry. Usually it is served with roti or daal -rice.
