Tips:

• If Bhavnagri Chilies are not available, then you Can use Jalapeno Pepper.
• You can store half fried chilies into the air tight container and then double fry it till golden brown before serving.
• You can use 1 tbsp lemon juice instead of Amchoor powder.
• I used Italian Green Cubanelle Chile peppers which is available in most of Walmart and Wegmans stores.

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.
