Beans and Carrot Curry

The best part about South Indian Cuisine is that it requires very less amount of oil in cooking, especially when it comes to cooking vegetables. Steaming is the predominantly used method of cooking vegetables. And also the real flavour of the vegetable is always retained as very minimum spices are used.
