#PC26 Locally, cluster beans are known as Gavar, Gawar, or Gavar Fali. For cooking, tender cluster beans are preferred. These beans are rich in vitamins and minerals, low in calories, and known to help lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Though highly nutritious, cluster beans are not everyone’s favorite. That’s why preparing them in a delicious and flavorful way makes a big difference. I’ve made this Dhaba-style Gawar Sabzi with protein-rich split Bengal gram (chana dal), inspired by a foodie friend. This quick and tasty recipe is made using a pressure cooker for convenience.
