Fry all the above ingredients in a pan with just 1 tbsp oil and grind them into a fine powder.

Procedure:
1)In a pan add some oil,asafoetida,turmeric and then add the beans.
2)once the beans get cooked add the curry powder,salt and red chilli powder and mix well.Keep mixing so it doesnot stick to the bottom of the pan .Add a tsp of oil if required.
3)Serve with rice.

P.S:Can also add 1/4tsp of cinnamon powder to the curry powder.It tastes good.
