Wash and wipe the bhindi, then prepare as needed for stuffing.

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat until shimmering.

Add cumin seeds and sauté until they splutter, about 30 seconds.

Add garlic chutney and mix well.

In a bowl, combine roasted peanuts, roasted besan, cumin-coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, salt, sugar, and dry mango powder to create the stuffing.

Stuff the bhindi with the prepared mixture.

Place the stuffed bhindi in the pan and cook, turning occasionally, until tender and well-cooked.
