DOUBLE BEANS CURRY

Double beans curry is a delicious and quick recipe from my mother. This curry can be made with both fresh or dry double beans. I make this curry when I don't have time to chop veggies. This is a versatile curry and hence can be served with idlis, vegetable dosa, maida dosa, rice or chapathi. For more curry recipes, you can check out this link.
