1Wash the ladies finger thoroughly and pat them dry with a kitchen towel. Cut them into 1-inch pieces.
Heat the vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat.
Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds until they release their aroma.
Add the sliced onion and sauté until they turn translucent.
Add the sliced green chilies and sauté for another minute.
Add the ladies finger pieces to the pan and stir well to combine with the onions and chilies.
Sprinkle the turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt over the vegetables.
Stir everything together to ensure the spices coat the ladies finger evenly.
Cook on medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the ladies finger is tender and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve hot as a side dish.
