Method
To sprout the vaal soak the beans for 4 hours in place the bean in a cotton cloth and keep it in a dark place to spourt. After a day the bean will sprout. Place these beans in warm water for an hour and the skin will loosen . Peel the skins and keep the vaal aside (see pic).
In a pan heat oil, add the mustard seeds, when the crackle add the asafoetida, curry leaves, onions, green chillies and turmeric. Saute the onions till light brown. Then add the vaal, chilly powder, goda masala and kokum, lightly stir, add a cup of water and cook the vaal till done. This will take about 8 - 10 minutes to cook. When cooked add the salt and jaggery, cook again for a minute or two till the jaggery melts. Garnish with coriander leaves and serve it with Jowar Roti.
