Wash the turmeric pieces, dry the water or wipe with a cloth, peel them and then grate them in a bowl.

Whisk the curd. Grind the black pepper, cloves, cinnamon and cardamom in a grinder.

Heat ghee in a pan and roast the grated turmeric on medium flame till it turns brown. Keep on stirring the turmeric while roasting it. It would be better if you will use non-stick pan to roast it. Once the turmeric gets roasted take it out on a plate. Fry the peas in the same ghee and keep them in a separate small bowl.

Now tamper the cumin seeds, heeng into the remaining ghee. Once the cumin seeds gets roasted put ground masala, coriander powder and anise powder into it. Roast the masala well and then add tomato paste and roast it again till the ghee starts to float at the top of the masala. Add curd into the roasted masala and cook till it starts to boil. Put tomato pieces into the boiling curd, fried turmeric. Cook by continuously stirring it with the spoon until the recipe starts to boil. Add salt to it and cook the recipe for another 2-3 minutes. Turn off the flame.
