Carrot and Bean Bhaji

Carrot and Bean Bhaji

Serves 2 -4 people

Most people think that Bhajis are round and deep fried but that isn’t the case. This Bhaji is a great and healthy accompaniment and to be honest I would be quite happy to eat it on its own as a main course.

 

Ingredients

2 large carrots

100g Fine trimmed beans

1 red onion

5 cherry tomatoes (halved)

1 teaspoon of cumin seeds

1 teaspoon of Garam Masala

½ green chilli (finely chopped)

1 clove of garlic

1” minced or grated fresh ginger

150ml vegetable stock

1 tablespoon of vegetable oil

Small handful of fresh chopped coriander

 

Method

-          Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pan on a medium heat and add the onion along with the garlic, ginger, chilli and cumin seeds and cook for 4 minutes.

-          Meanwhile peel and thinly slice your carrots into strips. After 4 minutes add the carrots, tomatoes and beans and cook for 2-3 minutes.

-          Add the Garam Masala and vegetable stock and cook for 4-5 minutes until nearly all the stock has reduced. Season with salt and stir in the fresh chopped coriander.
