Kothavarangai Vathal | Sun Dried Cluster Beans | கொத்தவரங்காய் வத்தல் | அவரக்காய் | அவரைக்காய் |

Sun-dried cluster beans, also known as kothavarangai vathal, is a traditional South Indian snack made from cluster beans. Cluster beans are a type of legume that are native to India and Southeast Asia. They are a good source of protein, fiber, and vitamins A and C.

To make sun-dried cluster beans, the beans are first parboiled in water for a few minutes. This helps to soften the beans and remove some of the bitterness. The beans are then spread out on a clean surface to dry in the sun. The beans will need to dry for several days, or until they are completely dry and brittle. Once the beans are dry, they can be stored in an airtight container for up to a year.

Sun-dried cluster beans can be eaten as a snack or used in a variety of dishes. They can be added to stir-fries, curries, or salads. They can also be fried until crispy and served with chutney, dal or sambar.

Here are some tips for making sun-dried cluster beans:

Use fresh, tender cluster beans. Older, tougher beans will not be as flavorful.
Do not overcook the beans. They should be tender but still have a bit of a bite to them.
Spread the beans out in a single layer to dry. This will help them to dry evenly.
Place the beans in a sunny spot. The sun will help to speed up the drying process.
Turn the beans occasionally to ensure that they dry evenly.
Once the beans are dry, they can be stored in an airtight container for up to a year.
