Cluster Beans Stir Fry | ग्वार फली की सब्जी | North Indian Style Kothavarangai Curry

Cluster beans/ gawar ki phali/ kothavarangai are rich in protein and fiber. Though we make many South Indian varieties in kothavarangai like poriyal, vathal, kootu, kuzhambu, paruppu usili, etc., I wanted to try the North Indian version of kothavarangai. So, I tried this simple and quick sabzi. Let's see the recipe.
Ingredients:

Cluster beans - 250 grams
Onion - 1 big finely chopped
Ginger garlic paste - 1 tsp
Green chilli - 2 finely chopped
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
Red chilli powder - 1/2 tsp
Coriander powder - 1 tsp
Kitchen king masala powder - 1 tsp
Salt - as required
Oil - 1 tbsp
Cumin seeds - 1/2 tsp

Method:

Finely chop cluster beans and pressure cook for 2 whistles.
Heat oil in a pan, add cumin seeds. When they splutter, add onion and green chillies. Saute until onion becomes transparent. Then add ginger garlic paste and saute well.
Add turmeric-red chilli-coriander-kitchen king masala powders, required salt and saute well.
Add the cooked cluster beans and mix well. Cover with lid and cook for 2 minutes.
Quick and easy cluster beans stir fry is ready!
Note:
You can use garam masala powder instead of kitchen king masala powder.
