 Easy side dish that goes with all kinds of food. It's quick to make, and yummy to eat. Nutritional Value 8 pods of okra have around 30 calories and here I have used 200gms of okra and fried them in a tablespoon of oil. Ingredients Okra- 200 gms (serves 3) Spice blend 1 tsp each of turmeric, coriander powder, garam masala, amchur powder, cumin powder, and salt. (Indian spices) Oil- 1 tbsp Method Clean your okra and cut the head and the tail, and put a little tear in the middle, if it is long. In a heavy bottom pan heat the oil and add the okra, (also known as bhindi in Hindi) and cook them in slow flame for around 10 minutes, keep tossing in every 1 minute. When it will start to brown on the edges add the spice mix and cook for another few minutes, till it is done. Don't cover and cook, otherwise, it will release water and the okra will be soggy. Serve with lunch or dinner or just roll in a chappati and have fun with it. Enjoy!
