Lately I have been using my toaster oven for my veggies. My latest trend to cook my veggies in the toaster oven has cut my cooking time in half in the kitchen. I prep them toss with some oil and spices , just put it in the oven for 40 minutes before dinner. Viola no pans to clean, no standing by the stove for stirring, low heat etc. In this recipe I have used my garden beans with some frozen peas.

Ingredients

2 cup fine chopped French beans

1/2 cup thawed frozen peas

2 cloves of minced garlic

1/2 tsp chopped ginger

1 chopped tomato

2 tbsp oil

1/2 tsp turmeric

1/2 tsp Garam masala

1tsp salt

1 tsp amchoor powder (dry mango powder)

Cooking time is 40 minutes.

Put chopped beans in an oven proof glass or Corning dish. Add the thawed peas, minced garlic, chopped ginger, turmeric , salt, chopped tomato, garam masala and oil. Mix everything nicely so the beans are well incorporated with everything.

Turn on the toaster oven to 350 degree, if you want you can preheat but I don’t do it. First 15 minutes do not cover it, at this point take out the dish from oven mix everything well and cover it with aluminum foil. let it cook for the remainder 25minutes. After this take it out of the oven put the amchoor powder and mix it well. Your beans are ready to be served for dinner.
