I developed this recipe as a last-minute alternative to traditional cold bean salad. It's not overly spicy, and it went over well with both kids and adults. For those who love curry, this is an easy way to add a perked-up vegetable to a summertime menu. Lemon juice can be used in place of rice vinegar. Can be served immediately or refrigerated to blend flavors. For faster preparation, substitute dried versions of any of the flavorings (adjusting the amounts).

This was a wonderful salad I made it from leftover fresh green beans that marinated overnight and served it on a bed of romaine lettuce with feta cheese on top delicious! Read More

This made a different side dish. It smelled heavenly while I was sautéing the garlic onions and ginger with the curry powder. I used fresh green beans which I had blanched and added to the pan and mixed with the aromatics. I think I would cut the oil to 2-3 tbs. I tried both chilled and warm and prefer warm. This was a hit or miss with my family they were almost evenly divided. Thanks for sharing. Read More

I added a can of kidney beans and a can of garbanzos and more onions and used lemon juice (2 lemons) instead of the vinegar). Except for the canned green beans getting mushy and falling apart it would look pretty good. I like the flavor with the other ingredients. Read More
