About Avarakkai poriyal

Avarakkai Poriyal is a flavorful South Indian stir-fry made with sliced Indian broad beans (avarakkai), coconut, and a blend of mild spices. Common ingredients include mustard seeds, curry leaves, dried red chilies, turmeric, and oil, often complemented by grated fresh coconut for texture and richness. This dish originates from Tamil Nadu cuisine and is a staple in traditional vegetarian meals. Avarakkai Poriyal is rich in dietary fiber, vitamins A and C, and antioxidants, which promote digestive health and support immunity. Broad beans are low in calories and fat, making them an excellent choice for weight management. However, the use of oil in preparation should be moderated for those mindful of fat intake. Simple yet nutritious, Avarakkai Poriyal is a healthy addition to a balanced diet and pairs well with steamed rice or chapati.
