Hi Vanamala, Thanks for dropping by on my blog. Your dishes looks very delicious will definetely try it sometime. I do like cluster beans but havent made it for a long time. Thanks for sharing your recipe. Looking forward for new recipes.
Vanamala - I have never tasted Cluster beans with lemon. So this is a must try for me.
Hello friends
This dish is one of my fav with chapati. Thanks for your wonderful comments.
Hi Vanamala,
I only knew to prepare gorikai palya so far.I used to eat gorikai palya all these days due to its iron content.But gorikai in gorikai palya tastes very bitter.I was thinking of either giving up on the vegetable or trying some different preparation.So i searched the net and caught hold of your recipe.I tried it out and liked it.Henceforth will prepare only this.Thank you.
