Forgive my photography skills.

Ingredients

For Curry
1 cup dry adzuki beans soaked overnight
1 can of cooked yam or about 100g of yam chopped into chunks
6-7 garlic cloves crushed
1 tsp salt
1 cup water
2 tsp oil

For masala
3 tbsp grated coconut
3 dry red chillies
1 tsp tamarind juice

Method

For Masala
Grind coconut, dry red chillies and tamarind into a smooth paste.

For Curry
Cook the adzuki beans and 100g of chopped yam (if using cooked yam then it should be added to cooked beans separately). Add the masala to the cooked adzuki beans and yam . Add 1 cup water and salt bring to boil. Now simmer for 10 mins. This has to be tempered . For tempering heat oil in a small pan and add crushed garlic and caramelize the garlic and then add to the above mixture. Serve this with hot white rice.
