Beans

French beans n potatoes
Flat beans
Finely chop onions
Same for beans but not too fine approx three pieces of beans in one finger joint
And cubed potatoes
One piece =one n a half finger joint
Heat n bring the mustard oil to smoking point
Switch off the heat
Then  after a few mins switch it on again
Add the jeera
When it stops sputtering
But make sure it doesn't turn black
And add the onions.
Sauté till a little more than pink
Add the beans n potatoes
Sprinkle a lil chilli powder
Toss
And cover with a lid
And reduce heat
Keep checking
But not too frequently
And once they become a bit soft
And the volume appears to have reduced add the salt
Cook
When it's almost done
Add dhania powder
And cover again
Till they r well cooked n flavoured and appear to have a bit of glaze
Use about a big serving spoon of oil
