    Alasande  wada (black eyed beans) are one of the tastiest fritters.  It is also known as lobia and karamani. They are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It’s the season of fresh black-eyed beans.

    Stir fry and sambar are the usual ones that I make using black eyed beans. Alasande wade  was on the to do list since a long time. Finally, I made it during the weekend. It was tasty and made a good treat.

    You can make it with dried beans also. Soak them overnight.  For the fresh ones, I soaked for two hours.

    Black eyed bean veggie (alasande kalu)

    Black eyed bean makes a good accompaniment with chapati or jowar roti. Dried ones need soaking while the fresh ones can be cooked instantly.

    Daily cooking needs some planning and I find beans to be useful in some way, either as a quick or soaked stir fry.  I tend to make them quite often as they are rich in nutrients and loved by all. Black eyed bean,  known by the name as “alasande ” in kannada  makes a good accompaniment with jowar roti or chapati. It is used in various dishes as sambar and fried dumplings. Here is one kind of accompaniment that is often made at home.
