About Beans upperi

Beans Upperi is a traditional South Indian stir-fried dish made with fresh green beans, coconut, and aromatic spices. Popular in Kerala cuisine, it showcases a balance of simplicity and flavor. The main ingredients include chopped green beans, grated coconut, mustard seeds, curry leaves, dried red chilies, and turmeric, cooked with a light splash of oil. This dish is naturally rich in dietary fiber, vitamins A and C, and antioxidants from the green beans, promoting digestive health and supporting the immune system. The use of coconut adds healthy fats, while the spices offer anti-inflammatory benefits. Typically served as a side dish in vegetarian or non-vegetarian meals, it complements rice and lentil-based staples like sambar or curry. Beans Upperi is low in calories but should be consumed in moderation if watching saturated fat intake due to the coconut. Its nutrient-packed profile makes it a wholesome addition to balanced, flavorful meals.
