Sim Sarshe Jhal or Hyacinth Beans in Mustard Gravy

In my childhood days I used to run away from vegetables and my mother used to tell me the nutrition values of vegetables. But never actually listened to her, except cauliflower and cabbage but not more than that. But slowly I started to have few of the vegetables.
