Wash the cluster beans and cut them into 1" pieces.
Boil the beans in a toap (deep vessel) until tender.
In a separate vessel, heat the oil. When hot, add the mustard seeds, asafoetida and chopped green chillies and let them temper.
When the green chillies and mustard seeds start popping, add the boiled beans, the gram flour and the remaining spices (red chilli powder, raw mango powder). Mix thoroughly.
Put a tawa under the vessel, lower the flame to low and let the mixture simmer.
When the gram flour is cooked, add the seasonings (salt and sugar). Serve hot.
