Dalimbi
A traditional preparation which is a hot favourite among the Maharashtrians. The field beans are cooked with kokum which imports a subtle hint of sour flavours that are distinctly different from using tamarind or lemon. Kokum is the dried peel of the fruit which is grown along coast. Kokum is available at most grocers.
