Broad beans and potato stir fry (Sem ki phalli and aloo fry) cooked in a super easy way. This is a simple stir fry that tastes delicious and goes well with roti, chapati or as a side dish for dal and rice.


Sem aloo ki sabzi- Sem Ki phalli or Flat beans/ broad beans are available during winter season. Sem ki phalli is a flat bean with oval seeds inside . When the Sem phalli ripens the seeds turn purplish dark or brown in color but still both the beans and the seeds are edible.

HOW TO CLEAN SEM KI PHALI/ BROAD BEANS

To prepare broad beans, you will need to remove the fibrous string that runs along the outer length of the beans. The easiest way to do this is by snipping a small piece on the top of the bean and then using that to pull out the string from the side. Do this on both sides of the beans. Once you have pulled out all the tough strings, just chop the bean into about ½ to 1 inch pieces. You are now ready to cook it.
