It was a dry day!

Literally! Went to the pool today with my son and was totally dried out from staying out in the sun. The ad for Glucon-D wasn't kidding! I really felt the sun sucking out the fluids from my body with a straw!!

Continuing with the same theme made two dry curries today!

Dhondakai fry and Beans with gram flour

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Beans with Gram flour (besan)

2 cups chopped beans

1/2 cup gram flour

1 tsp chilli pd

1 tsp turmeric pd

Cumin seeds and a handful of curry leaves

A pinch of asafoetida pd

Salt to taste

Heat oil and add the asafoetida pd, cumin seeds and curry leaves and let them splutter for a sec. Then add the beans, turmeric, salt and half a up of water and cover and let the beans cook till they are soft. After the water is gone and the beans are cooked, add the gram flour and chilli pd and sprinkle a little water and let it cook on low heat till the raw smell of the gram flour is gone.
