Green Beans with Mushrooms

• 5 Tbsp vegetable oil
• 3/4 tsp cumin seeds
• 1 medium onion, peeled and cut into fine half-rings
• 1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and cut into slivers
• 5 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
• 8 oz fresh mushrooms, thickly sliced
• 1 lb green beans, trimmed and cut into 2-inch segments
• 2 tsp ground coriander
• 1 1/4 tsp ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
• 3/4 tsp garam masala
• 3/4 tsp chili powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 medium tomato, coarsely chopped

Put the oil in a wide pan and set over medium-high heat. When hot, add the cumin seeds. As soon as the seeds begin to sizzle, add the onion. Stir and fry until the onion browns. Add the ginger and garlic, stirring until the garlic starts to brown. Add the mushrooms. Stir and fry for 2 minutes. Add the beans, coriander, cumin, turmeric, garam masala, chili powder, salt, tomato, and 1/2 cup of water. Bring to a boil. Cover, lower the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove the cover, raise the heat and boil most of the liquid away, stirring gently as you do so.
