Bharwa Bhindi (Stuffed Okra)

This is a very simple stuffed okra recipe which I found on the Internet. It is very easy to make and yummy in taste!!

INGREDIENTS

1. Bhindi (Okra) - 500gms

2. Aamchur powder- 1 tsp

3. Jeera powder - 4 tsp

4. Dhaniya powder- 3 tsp

5. Garam masala - 2 tsp

6. Haldi - 1 tsp

7. Chilli Powder - 3 tsp

8. Salt - as per taste

9. Oil - 4 tsp

Preparation

1. Mix the above masala well together

2. Wash the bhindi and dry it thoroughly. Slit bhindi in half

3. Stuff masala in the slit bhindi one by one. Don't worry if masala falls off, just cover the bhindi in masala as well.

4. You don't have to use the entire masala. If there is some left then keep it refrigerated and use it with other sabzi or daal.

5. Heat 2 tablespoon oil in a pan. Place the bindi in the pan. Cook on low flame and cover it with lid.

6. Keep turning the bhindi now and then

7. Cook for about 20 mins until bhindi are cooked. Make sure that masala does not burn by cooking in low flame throughout, turning bhindi from time to time and covering the pan with lid.

I personally love it with plain rice. You can serve with roti or paratha and yogurt!

Cheers!
