Tadaaaaa Black-eyed Bean Bonda. It was so easy to make and tasted great.
Like most beans, black-eyed beans are rich in the best sort of fiber - soluble fiber - which helps to eliminate cholesterol from the body. They are a good source of folate, potassium, copper, phosphorous and manganese. As a high-potassium, low-sodium food they help reduce blood pressure
Now comes the recipe.
Ingredients
Black-eyed beans - 3/4 cup
Red Chilles - 4 to 5 nos.
Carrot - Medium sized carrot cut into half
Freshly grated coconut - 3 tbsp
