Potato and Green Beans

This makes for a simple subzi for days when you can't think of a longer recipe.

You need :
Its best to cook this in non stick ware coz the potatoes may stick.

3 medium potatoes - chopped in small cubes
about 250 gms beans - chopped similarily. The combo of beans and potato should be such that neither should be more than the other.
1 small onion
3 garlic flakes
few curry leaves
1/2 tsp turmeric
1 and half tsp red chilli powder
1  tsp coriander powder

The beans need to be half cooked in just surface level water,pinch of turmeric and salt. Then they need to be strained if there is excess water.

In about 3 tbsps hot oil,saute garlic and curry leaves.  Put onions and cook just before they start to look faintly golden.

Check for spice level in between.

Put the spice powders and salt and add potato. Cook till potatoes are cooked. Add the beans and mix well. Cook till the beans are done.
