This is one of the simple, healthy and colorful palya/stirfry. Carrot beans stirfry can be a side dish for chapati or rice. I like it with Rice-rasam combo. Carrot is one of the vegetable which is not at all used in Sri Krishna Math Udupi. The same custom is till followed in some very orthodox families. But in the glamour of modernity, these customs are being faded out of many families. This stirfry is made without any masalas as such. A plain, simple and quick carrot beans stirfry/palya is here for you.
