BORBOTIR BHORTA (MASHED LONG BEANS)

People are not much fond of yard long beans. It is a Summer green vegetable healthy, easy on stomach with loaded full of nourishment. We had a cook in my childhood days and she was from Bangladesh, expert in cooking delicious dishes. She oftenly made yard long beans like this simple way as we were also not much fond of this veggie and trust me it is always lipsmacking good with plain rice only. Tryout, will just love it.

INGREDIENTS:-
250 gm Borboti / Long Beans (washed, cut into 1" pieces)
1 cup thinly sliced Onion
3 Green Chillies or as per taste
Salt to taste
1 tbsp chopped Coriander Leaves / Cilantro
2 tbsp Mustard Oil

METHOD:-
In a pan heat a cup water with salt. Add pieces of long beans or norboti along with green chillies in it. Cover and boil for 15 minutes. Switch off the heat now. Let it cool automatically. Drain water completely and keep it aside.
Now, heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan. Saute sliced onion with pinch of salt. Fry for 3 minutes. Remove sauteed onion from the pan.
In a mixie jar, pour cooked long beans, green chillies and sauteed onion. Grind it to make a coarse paste.
Remove this paste in a bowl. Add coriander leaves and remaining mustard oil. Mix thoroughly.
