Dry roast both the ingredients till golden brown and grind to coarse powder.
Method:
Wash, wipe dry and cut the ladies finger into lengthy pieces.


Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a pan and saute the ladies finger in it for 10 minutes or until it becomes slightly brown.  Set aside. 


Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan add ginger and saute well. Add tomato and cook until it becomes soft and the mixture starts to leaves oil.


In the mean time, in a small bowl whisk together the yogurt, turmeric powder, achaari masala, chilli powder, asafoetida, coriander powder and salt and set aside.
