This recipe is a waste of time and ingredients. The dish was bland and tasteless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The flavors were bland and the green beans were overcooked. I would not recommend this recipe.

I found that the green beans were a bit too tough, even after cooking them for the recommended amount of time. I would recommend cooking them for a few minutes longer.

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste, but it's still very good. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like your food too hot.

This is a great recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. It's also very versatile - you can add other vegetables, such as potatoes or carrots, to make it a more substantial dish.

I'm not a big fan of green beans, but this recipe changed my mind. The spices and tamarind give them a really delicious flavor. I'll definitely be making this again.

I love that this recipe uses fresh green beans instead of frozen or canned ones. It makes a big difference in the texture and flavor of the dish. I also appreciate that the recipe is not too spicy, so it's perfect for people who don't like their food
