Achari Dahi Bhindi ‘Achari’ means pickling whi Achari Dahi Bhindi
‘Achari’ means pickling which is made using a mix of spices. So, we are using pickle masala in this recipe but very less which making this dish flavorful and unique.
There are of course regional variations of Achari dishes. And most popular vegetables are cauliflower, potatoes, okras, etc… yogurt and tomatoes are being added to Achari Sabji which give a double-tangy flavor to curry. It is also perked up with a wide assortment of seeds and spice powders, which give it a super peppy flavor and aroma too.
