Add dhanajeera power immediately after you add lady's , so that they will not stick to each other.
do not cover the pan
if wish to add onion and garlic add after mustard seed crackle.
can use green chillies instead of chilli powder
use a shallow pan or less quantity of lady's finger at one time , so it makes the subzi crispy.
wish to make crispy, cook for some longer time.
