Green Beans With Lentils

1. 1

   Heat oil in a saucepan on a low flame and add the mustard seeds.

2. 2

   When they begin to sputter, add the chopped french beans, lentils, salt, turmeric powder and water.

3. 3

   The water should be sufficient to cover the beans, so add some more if necessary.

4. 4

   Cover the saucepan tightly and cook on a low flame for about 30 minutes or until the beans are well cooked.

5. 5

   Check to see that the water is sufficient (that is, the mixture isn't dry) every 10 minutes, with stirring, and add more water if necessary.

6. 6

   After 30 minutes most of the water should have evaporated.

7. 7

   Switch off burner, remove from flame and serve hot.
