french beans poriyal recipe – this is one of those recipes i often make with french beans along with french beans foogath and french beans aloo sabzi.

poriyal is a south indian dry vegetable preparation where the veggies are sauted in spices and topped with fresh grated coconut. you can make poriyal with veggies like cabbage, carrot, beetroot, okra, potato etc.

i make poriyal recipes as a side dish with sambar or rasam along with rice. poriyals are are easy and quick to make and are healthy vegan side dishes which you can make on a short notice. i have already shared the recipe of beetroot poriyal.
