It is wonderful to get to know other culture's recipes! Thanks for the info!
That looks and sounds delicious. I've never heard of Achari masala and thank you for the link to the mix.. There is an Indian cookery course at my local college, you're tempting me! We do need a proper introduction to the spices. There must be hundreds, unique to all different regions.
Thank you for the inspiration!
Looks delicious. I didn't like okra as a kid, I do love it now
