Papdi are flat, pale green bean pods with small seeds inside, eaten pod and all. They cook to a tender, slightly sweet bite and hold their shape in a dry sabzi. Gujarati kitchens rely on them for undhiyu and papdi nu shaak, and they also go into mixed vegetable curries, dal and a South Indian poriyal with coconut.
How to use it
Snap off the tips and pull away any string along the edges, then cut the pods into short pieces. For papdi nu shaak, temper ajwain and a pinch of hing in oil, add the beans with turmeric, salt and a splash of water, cover and steam for 10 minutes, then finish with ground coriander, chilli and a little jaggery. Add them with potato and aubergine for undhiyu.
