Step 1

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When hot, add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Cook until they start to pop. Stir in the onion and cook until translucent, about 6 minutes.

Step 2

Add the garam masala, turmeric, and cayenne. Cook until fragrant, 2 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid burning.

Step 3

Add the tomatoes and tomato paste, if using, and cook for 3 minutes. Add the green beans, salt and water. Mix well, cover, and cook for 15 minutes.

Step 4

Stir, taste and adjust salt and spice. Check the beans for doneness. Add a bit more water if you want to keep it saucy. Cover and cook until beans are cooked through, 5 minutes. The beans should not be mushy, but just about well-cooked. Serve hot, garnished with cilantro.
