Butter Beans / Lima Beans Masala

Lima Beans are also known as 'Butter Beans', because of their starchy and buttery texture, Butter beans have a delicate flavor that complements a wide variety of dishes. Although fresh butter beans are often difficult to find, they are worth looking for in the summer and fall when they are in season. Dried and canned beans are available all over the year.
