Aloo Beans ki Sabzi | Potato and French Beans Recipe

Aloo Beans recipe or potato beans (आलू बीन्स की सब्ज़ी) recipe is a dry vegetable made of potatoes, French beans (green beans) and spices. This is a healthy, quick and easy to make recipe. This is a no onion no garlic recipe and doesn’t need many ingredients. It can be prepared with basic Indian spices.

This aloo beans ki sabji has high nutrition value. French beans are good sources of protein, excellent sources of fiber, and naturally fat-free, sodium-free, and cholesterol-free. They are not only rich in vitamins A, C, and K but also a good source of folic acid and heart protective calcium and fiber.

The process of aloo beans sabzi is similar to any other dry vegetable. To cook aloo beans faster, chop aloo and beans finely. Long pieces of beans take too much time to cook. This sabji doesn’t require onion and garlic. You can add tomatoes and spices like turmeric powder, red chilli powder and garam masala. I add amchoor powder (dry mango powder) but you can add lemon juice to give some sourness.

Aloo beans ki sabji can be served in the main course along with dal, rice, roti and curry. You can serve this dry vegetable only with paratha and raita for dinner.
