2. The quantity of lemon juice depends on the tanginess of the juice and according to your taste buds too.
3. You can add grated carrots in the last to make it healthier.

Thanks for the recipe. I usually make it with either cashew or peanuts not both and never with more kuzhambu. Usually make beans paruppu usili (my fav way of eating beans) for more kuzhambu (majigga pulusu as we call it!)
