About this vorta
Shim — the flat green bean that fills Bangladeshi markets every winter — makes one of the freshest vortas of all. We boil the beans until tender, then pound them coarsely with garlic, green chilies, onion, cilantro and mustard oil.
Light, green and gently spicy, shim vorta brings a garden-fresh note to any vorta spread.
Made fresh to order in Dallas and sold by the pound.
How to enjoy it
Mix a spoonful into steaming white rice with a squeeze of lime, or serve alongside dal, khichuri, ruti or paratha. Keep refrigerated and enjoy within 3–4 days; bring to room temperature before serving for the best aroma.
