   5       md           Potatoes, cubed
   2 1/2   c            Green beans, cut into 1 1/2

   1       tb           Basil
   2       ea           Whole dried red chilies
   4       ea           Sprigs fresh coriander
     1/2   ts           Turmeric
     1/8   ts           Asafetida

   6       tb           Ghee
   2 2/3   c            Water

  Place all the ingredients into a large heavy bottomed pot in the order in
  which they are listed.  Bring to a boil over a moderate heat, reduce heat &
  boil for 5 minutes.
  
  Reduce the heat further & gently boil, partially covered, for 20 to 25
  minutes.  Check that the water is not evaporating too quickly.  You may
  have to add more water.
  
  To finish cooking, raise the heat to fairly high & fry quickly, without
  stirring, to allow the crust to form & just begin to char.  Remove from the
  heat & let stand, covered for 5 minutes.  Stir in the crust & serve,
  remembering to remove the red chilies, you may not want to bite into them.
