Why This Recipe Works

These delicate South Indian rice noodles are light, zingy, and perfect for a quick dinner. The combination of charred beans and jammy tomatoes is incredibly refreshing.

Instructions

Blister the green beans in coconut oil over high heat without stirring for a couple of minutes to get a nice char, then cook until tender and set aside.

Sizzle curry leaves and mustard seeds in oil, then cook the red onion until soft and golden before adding garlic and chiles.

Add the tomatoes and cook covered until they break down into a soft, jammy consistency.

Toss the rice noodles and charred beans into the pan, season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice, and mix until everything is hot.
