Chawli Ki Sabzi / Choli Nu Shaak is a simple dry preparation or sabzi made with very few spices and tomatoes. Chawli is called Choli in Gujarati and Long Beans in English.
Today I am sharing an easy recipe of a Gujarati style Chawli Sabzi / Choli Nu Shaak(Called in Gujarati). The spices used in this recipe are very basics and found in every Indian Household pantry. This sabzi goes very well with Roti and Plain Paratha.

Like all other beans, long beans also have numerous health benefits. it has very good amount of fiber.
