Beans Paruppu Usili
Paruppu Usili is a delicious dish consists of few different dals & veggies, which are cooked to perfection while making it irresistibly good. The other version of paruppu usili is Andhra's Patoli dish. It is very similar dish as of usili with a little of variations to it & it is as delicious as usili. When we were enjoying this dish for lunch my husband was saying it is very similar to Nellore's "Sandi Pindi" dish. I was amazed how one dish was named differently in different places & to my surprise all are few miles apart. 
Enjoy this yummy dish!!!

- Usili/Patoli is ready to serve. Serve warm with rice & dollop of ghee.
Note
- I never boil veggies in lots of water as the nutrients are drained wastly after the veggies are cooked. 
- You add salt kind of twice in this dish. As the mixture needed the perfect salting & the veggies will be left alone. Add enough salt/little salt to veggies to balance it perfectly in the dish.
- Sprinkle a little lemon juice after the curry is cooled. It adds a nice twist to the dish.
