Green Beans and Pumpkin

To prepare:

Top and tail the beans, leaving them long. And peel, seed and then cut the pumpkin into cubes.

step 1
- 1 tablespoon Ghee
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds, brown
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 tablespoon ginger, chopped
Heat the ghee and ‘pop’ the mustard seeds (with the lid on) and then lower the heat a little and add the cumin seeds and fresh ginger.
step 2
- 1/2, cubed pumpkin, butternut
- 500 gram
Add the pumpkin cubes quickly after the cumin seeds and brown them both a little. Then add the beans and toss well in the spicy ghee.
step 3
- as needed water
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 tablespoon Good Salt, unrefined.
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, crushed
Add enough water (or whey from making paneer) to half cover the beans and add the salt and powdered spices and half cover. When the water is almost gone the beans should be tender (if not as a little more). Turn off the heat and allow to settle after all the excitement of cooking.
step 4
- 1 tablespoon coriander leaves (cilantro)
- 1 lemon wedges
Just before serving add the whole coriander leaves and squeeze of lemon and stir thru.
