Tingalavare vaagu/ white bean spicy curry

Konkanis love tingalavre. TingaLavare or white beans is the most commonly used bean in the konkani cuisine. Normally this curry is prepared with potato and tomato. Today I tried an easy method with white bean. This   dish is the favourite dish of everyone in my home.  Same   recipe can be tried with green peas also. Beans need to be soaked for 3 to 4 hours. It saves cooking time.
