Beans Carrot Thoran

I have family visiting from India at home this summer so not getting time to sit on my laptop and post  or click pictures even though i'm cooking a lot :). But few days back we cooked this thoran which is my moms recipe. She will usually add cabbage too but that day i didn't had any cabbage at home . For this thoran she will add a little garlic which gives it a very unique taste.

Carrot - 3/4 cup , chopped small
Grated Coconut - 1/4 cup
Hot Green Chili - 6 , chopped small
Pearl Onion - 2 , chopped
Curry Leaves - a few
Cumin - 1/2 tsp
Mustard - 1/2 tsp
Turmeric - 1/4 tsp
Salt to taste 
Oil - 2 tsp


1. Mix coconut , chili , cumin , turmeric, salt and pound coarsly.
2. Mix beans , carrot and keep aside.
3. Heat oil and add mustard seeds.
4. When mustard starts to pop add curry leaves and onion.
5. When onion turns translucent add coconut mixture .
6. Mix well and add beans, carrot and sprinke a tbsp of water.
