bhindi ki sabzi

Share

today, i'm gonna include this recipe for the simple yet delicious bhindi (okra/ lady finger).

there are a couple of ways of making this delectable vegetable and there's no way you can go wrong unless you add water :D

ingredients:

bhindi - 1/2 kg
onion - 1 large
oil - 40 ml
cumin seeds - 1 teaspoon
chilli powder - 1 teaspoon
coriander powder - 2 teaspoon
turmeric powder - 1/2 teaspoon
salt - 1 teaspoon

cut the bhindi into rings of 1 cm thickness, or vertically into 4 pieces, either is ok.
chop the onions into small pieces.

heat the oil in a saucepan and add the cumin seeds. the cumin will turn whitish and then dark brown. add the onions when cumin turns brown (this should be about 10 seconds if the oil is hot), fry the onions on medium heat for about 8 mins stirring occasionally. turn the heat high and add the spice powders (not salt) with 1/4 cup of water, stirring it so that the spices get cooked properly. once the water is evaporate, the spices would be cooked. now add the cut bhindi and turn the heat to low-medium (4 o'clock) and add salt. cover and cook for 20 minutes, stirring twice or thrice during this time. best served with chapaatis, daal and rice.
