  3. Good Recipe, enjoyed lot with Family. Thanks for ur pictorial explanation of recipes. It makes easy to understand n cook.5 stars

  4. Thanks for this tasty recipe. I took a little longer to make it as I don’t have a pressure cooker, and also added some diced potato with the beans and some shredded spinach with the coriander. because I wanted to use up some vegetables which otherwise would not keep. It still worked beautifully!

    I served it with some steamed basmati.5 stars

    1. thanks and welcome mawb. the beans do take a longer time to cook when cooked in a pan. you have made lovely changes to the recipe. spinach must have worked very well in the recipe. thanks for sharing 🙂

  5. Thanks for sharing your recipe. I made this for my husband and while he enjoyed it, he said he would have preferred a bit more mixture of beans so before I served my kids, I added a ti of white beans which added a nice bit of heft and textural contrast. Other than that, there is only enough left for lunch tomorrow!4 stars

  6. This curry was delicious thnx a lot for posting such a wonderful recipe….hats off to uu <3 🙂5 stars

  7. Good tasty recipe. Parsis cook same way but add ggpaste . Instead of chopped. Little vinegar added last. Eaten with tomato onion kachumbar.5 stars

  8. Should we discard the soaking water or use the same water in cooking?
    Which would be more nutritious ?
    Will using the soaking water be gas producing ?

    1. sharmilee, i am not sure which is more nutritious but we discard the water. only in case of black chickpeas we use the soaked water. sometime for white chickpeas also. but i do remember my mother used to give this stock (soaked lobia water) to drink.

      1. Thanks Dassana, I tried this recipe and it was absolutely tasty.

        Can I use the same recipe and substitute the blackeyed beans with vegetables ? If so, what vegetables go well with this curry ?5 stars

  9. Excellent! But I added saboot whole red chilly too along with jeera. And also, besides garnishing chopped Dhania leaves, half portion of it fried with masalas before putting lobia in it.4 stars
