Simple Tips from Nestlé

Good to Know - Beans have non-heme iron, a form of iron that is not easily absorbed by the body. By adding Maggi Rasamusu, you can increase the amount of iron in your meal.

Good to remember - Beans are also rich in protein.
     

Method

Chop the ma karal (Sri Lankan long beans) into portions of equal length so each is 1 ½ inches long. Bring sufficient water to a boil and then blanch the chopped ma karal for 10-15 seconds in the boiling water. Immediately after blanching the ma karal dunk them in iced water to prevent further cooking and drain the ice water away. Repeat this process of blanching and dunking in ice water with the leek leaf as well.

Use thin strips of the leek to tie the ma karal into bundles. Each bundle should consist of six pieces of 1 ½ inch long ma karal.

Heat a flat frying pan and add the butter. As the butter melts add the pack of Maggi Rasa Musu, then temper the bundles of ma karal until they are ready.
