Bhindi Fry (Amma's)

Original Recipe (for three people)

Cut bhindi into small pieces. Put into frying pan . Put 2 sp oil. Fry till sticky substances are removed. Remove from vessel and keep it outside. If vessel has become sticky then take another

Put

oil,

mustard seeds,

red chili (1),

Tur dal (1sp),

kadale bale,

uddina bale,

1 onion (medium, cut),

curry leaves,

turmeric (1 sp).

Add bhindi. Mix.

Add salt,

chili powder (2 sp),

1 sp sugar.

Add 3-4 sp grated coconut.

Add coriander leaves,

½ cup water.

Add ½ sp tamarind paste.

Boil till dry.

My Notes

  1. Wash the bhindi before cutting – otherwise they’ll become soggy. Preferably dry them
  2. Need to fry them till sticky substance is removed. Do not deep fry
  3. The dal adds a nutty flavor. Do not burn them, but at the same time do not undercook.
  4. Make it dry
  5. Do not cook coriander leaves as they’ll lose the taste. Add it at the end.
