For a richer flavor, try using toasted sesame oil instead of olive oil. A splash of rice vinegar or lemon juice at the end can brighten the dish. If you like a little heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes along with the cumin and coriander. Pre-soaked adzuki beans will cook faster. Soak them in water overnight before cooking.
