Beans? Really?..My folks wouldn't even spell the word. But its health benefits which are rich in proteins and antioxidants and their ability to prevent certain diseases always wanted me to incorporate them as a part of our diet, because at least 3 servings per week is recommended. Again they are really good for your waistline(Girls!!!)Beans means it used to be always the Garbanzo and or the pods we make as a side dish for rice. So when I saw my favorite chef make this, I immediately tried this and was an instant hit. This can be well served with chappathi, garlic bread (or any bread, for that matter), naan or as such as chili.
