Lima beans- 100gms
Chopped snake gourd- 1 cup
Split green gram- ¼ cup
Chopped tomato- half cup
Chopped onion- ½
Turmeric powder- half sp
Chopped coriander- ¼ cup
Cumin seeds- ¼ sp
Chilli powder- ¼ sp
Salt to taste
Oil- 2 tbsp
Grind the following o a fine paste:
Shredded coconut- ¼ cup, cumin seeds- ¼ sp, peppercorn-1/4 tsp
Procedure:
Heat a pan and pour the oil.
Add the cumin seeds and when they splutter add the onions.
Fry them well and then add the tomato with the turmeric powder and the coriander leaves.
Fry until the tomato is cooked well.
Add the vegetables with the salt as well as the chilli powder.
When the vegetables are almost cooked, add the ground paste and mix well.
After the vegetables are fully cooked in the coconut gravy, put off the fire.
The tasty kootu is ready now to serve!!
