Visited Ranchi, Bihar years ago when my brother was working for Hindustan Steel company. His neighbor was a Bihari. I tasted a few traditional Bihari dishes. Biharis use more turmeric powder and mustard while making paste unlike South Indians. I had been to the farmers market In Ranchi. . This is a simple spicy recipe with beans and potatoes
