Title: Recipe Review - Spicy Green Beans with Coconut
Post by: meganjane on January 07, 2010, 03:39:11 am

From Fast and Easy Indian Cooking:

Very tasty, needed a salt added. I used tomato paste instead of tomato puree.

We have had this several times at Thermomix meals and it looks great when served with all the trimmings.  I left off the garnish of sliced fresh tomato, so ours didn't look as pretty as it should have, but in the context of a table full of dishes all cooked in one TMX with guest conversation modifying my concentration, I was pleased with this dish.  It was easy to cook and it tasted delicious.  Do try it.

Just made this and I was disappointed.... I felt it was missing some flavour.
I used tomato puree, so perhaps I should have used paste instead?
And probably should have a bit of additional salt too...

Yes, if you read my post it says it needs salt and use tomato paste.

This is a great side dish.  Doesn't look pretty but appearance doesn't matter when it tastes so good.

Definitely use tomato paste and season accordingly.
