| | Char Flavored Potatoes and Green Beans
2 medium tomatoes, chopped 5 medium potatoes, cubed 2 1/2 cups of green beans, cut into 1 1/2 1 tablespoon of basil 2 Whole dried red chilies 4 Sprigs fresh coriander 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric 1/8 teaspoon of Asafetida 1 teaspoon of salt 1 dash Black pepper 6 tablespoons of Ghee 2 2/3 cups of water
Place all the ingredients into a large heavy bottomed pot in the order in which they are listed. Bring to a boil over a moderate heat, reduce heat & boil for 5 minutes. Reduce the heat further & gently boil, partially covered, for 20 to 25 minutes. Check that the water is not evaporating too quickly. You may have to add more water. To finish cooking, raise the heat to fairly high & fry quickly, without stirring, to allow the crust to form & just begin to char. Remove from the heat & let stand, covered for 5 minutes. Stir in the crust & serve, remembering to remove the red chilies, you may not want to bite into them. :) Yields: 7 Servings
