I volition so portion amongst yous today a recipe that is mutual together with everyday occurrence inwards a Konkani household since fourth dimension immemorial: Saarupkari. You tin also telephone telephone it Saaru Upkari. " Saaru " inwards Konkani linguistic communication agency " gravy" together with " upkari" agency "stir-fry". The literal translation would brand the dish " gravy stir-fry" or a stir fry amongst gravy. You would cause got seen several stir-fries that cause got been posted past times me. This 1 is slightly different,even though the physical care for of making it is elementary similar that of a stir-fry. This is made amongst beans together with is thick together with soupy. Yes, I would interpret it equally " Bean Soup", konkani style. Believe me when I say yous that making soup cannot survive easier than this. This is a pretty staple side-dish inwards most konkani household. Depending on the edible bean that has been used, the nomenclature of the soup. Today, I am going to beak most reddish kidney edible bean which inwards Konkani is known equally tambde bea. "Tambde" agency "red" together with "bea" agency "bean". So reddish kidney edible bean soup would survive called tambde bea saarupkari. All that is done for the soup is that yous boil the concerned beans amongst excess H2O until it is tender plenty to your liking together with yous acquire a thick gravy.We so add together tabular array salt together with temper it amongst either mustard, curry leaves , hing together with chilli pulverization or temper it amongst crushed garlic together with chilli pulverization . Yes, it's that simple!!! And yous tin savor a delicious pipage hot bowl of edible bean soup either all past times itself, amongst rice, or about crackers or a slice of bread.

Servings: 2

Ingredients:

Red kidney beans: 1/2 loving cup dried or 1 can
Water: 2 cups

Reduce the open fire to depression later the foremost whistle together with ready for fifteen mins. Switch off the flame. Do non opened upwards the cooker until the steam has totally been released.

Once the steam is released, mix the beans, add together tabular array salt together with convey it to a boil.

Enjoy! I am bringing this hearty soup to Angie's Block political party at Fiesta Friday.It is co-hosted past times Hilda @ Along the Grapevine together with Julianna @ Foodie on Board.

Cooking made easy:

This saarupkari/ soup tin survive made amongst whatever beans. I prefer the dried beans equally when yous boil them yous acquire a overnice thick soupy consistency sauce. The canned beans don't give yous the same results, unless of course of pedagogy yous role the fluid that comes amongst the beans. This fluid withal real high inwards sodium together with may cause got preservatives together with so is non skillful for you.

For creamier beans, add together a pinch of baking soda inwards the H2O spell soaking the dried beans.

Tip for salubrious living:

Avoid canned beans equally the aluminum from the tin leaches into the fluid. Also the fluid tends to survive high inwards sodium which is non skillful for the body. Increased consumption of sodium tin growth blood pressure, campaign H2O memory inwards the body.
