Aloo Beans: Green Beans & Curry

2 Cups yellow potatoes, peeled and sliced

1/2 Cup yellow onion, chopped

3 Cup green beans, coarsely chopped

3 Tbsp vegetable oil

1 tsp mustard seeds

1/2 tsp ground turmeric

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp ground coriander

1 1/2 tsp chili powder

1 tsp salt

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp garam masala

  1. Begin by prepping all of the vegetables. Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1/8 inch thick slices. Cut the onion into a medium chop, and coarsely chop the green beans into bite sized pieces. Set the vegetables aside. 
  2. In a skillet or a pot with a lid, heat 3 Tbsp of vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the mustard seeds and cook until they start to pop. Next, add the potatoes and the onions to the skillet and cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently. 
  3. Turn the heat down to low and add the green beans and all of the spices except for the garlic and the garam masala. Stir to coat and then cover. 
  4. Cook covered, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes and beans are tender. 
  5. Next, add garlic to the pan and cook for 1 minute. Finally, stir in the garam masala and remove from the heat. Serve hot.
