Some of the tips and variations to make Carrot Beans Poriyal
- Cooking of the vegetables : Carrot and Beans usually cook very fast, hence I prefer to cook this on a skillet. You can also cook it in the pressure cooker to save the time; however, it could get mushy.
- Spice : I made it very simple by adding just Red Chili in this recipe. Adding a teaspoon of Sambar Powder can be an alternative to this.
- Coconut : Conventionally we only add the grated coconut before turning off the flame. Instead, you can also grind coconut with green chili, ½ teaspoon of jeera and mix the powder to gain additional flavor and taste.
