Mochai fry can be made with fresh beans seeds or with the dried beans (Mochaikottai). If you use fresh Mochai, then you can add directly to the curry and cook. If you are using dried beans (Mochaikottai), then soak it over night and then pressure cook it for two to three whistles and then use it in the curry.
I used fresh green mochaikottai in this curry.
This will go with any rice dishes and also with Chapati.
