ALOO BHINDI RECIPE - STEP BY STEP


ALOO BHINDI SABZI | POTATO OKRA CURRY



Aloo Bhindi - This is a great tasting fry with the combination of potato and okra along with tomatoes and onions. When buying okra,make sure you choose bright green ones,that snap when bent. I think among all the veggies,okra is a bit difficult to cook,because of the slime and there are quite few tricks to get rid of it. You can add lemon juice or curd or tamarind to get rid of the natural slime and avoid using water.

This dish is a wonderful all rounder  that goes well with  with rice or roti's. 


Preparation time : 10 mins.
Cooking time : 30 mins.
Serves : 2

For this recipe you need

12 - 15 okra, washed, tops removed and chopped
1 medium sliced onion , sliced
1 ripe tomato , chopped
2 potatoes, washed and diced
1 tbsp. of lime juice
1 tsp. of mustard and urad dal
A sprig of curry leaves
Salt
Oil
Coriander leaves, chopped for garnishing
Preparation

Heat oil in a pan.Add the mustard seeds, when they crackle. add the urad dal, curry leaves and fry for a min.


Add the onion and fry until soft. Add the potatoes and continue to fry for a couple of mins.


Tip in the okra and continue stirring for few more mins. Add the tomatoes. 



Add the sambar powder, lemon juice and salt and mix well.



Cover and allow it to cook on low flame, keep stirring frequently to keep the curry from sticking. When both the veggies get cooked remove from heat and serve hot sprinkled with the chopped coriander leaves.


Aloo Bhindi is ready to be served...........


Serve this aloo bhindi fry with rice or roti's and enjoy :)
