Cooking instructions

* Step 1

In a pan, heat oil and add the ginger-garlic chilli paste. Saute for a minute and add the chopped spring onion greens. Fry for a minute or two. Next add cowpea beans. Stir fry for about 2-3 minutes. Next, add the cubed potatoes. Saute until nicely done with all the powdered spices as well. Also don't forget to add chopped fenugreek greens.

* Step 2

Cook until soft and done. Cover it up so that it retains the steam. It gets done pretty much soon. Keep stirring a bit every now and then so that it cooks well and doesn't burn or stick at the bottom. There is absolutely no need of any water at all. Let it cook in it's own juices.

* Step 3

Garnish with lots of chopped coriander leaves. Serve hot as a side dish to your favourite meal. This is a lovely combination and tastes yum with both Rice and Rotis. Yum!
