Crispy Fried Okra


Here's me presenting a SUPER easy and delicious vegan recipe (my mother in law's invention!), made with just 5 ingredients! Yes, the Crazy Chef's been MIA for a while, (motherhood duties!) but promising this time to be more active than before, Inshaallah! I absolutely LOVE this recipe of bhindi or Okra, best eaten with daal chawal or just a spoon and some raita!  Do try it out and send me your photos on my instagram or facebook page to be featured!




(serves 3)
Ingredients:

Okra/Bhindi 1/2 kg (thinly sliced)
Salt 1 tsp
Turmeric powder 1 tsp 
Red chili powder 1 tsp
Oil 4-6 tbsp

Method:

Wash the okra before slicing thinly. Make sure you've dried it properly before cutting. Now add salt, turmeric and red chili powder and mix really well. Heat a large open frying pan (preferably non-stick or heavy iron). Add oil and let it heat up. Now add the okra and fry it on highest heat till it changes color and becomes crispy, about 6-10 minutes. Do not stir the okra a lot, otherwise it will lose it's shape. Let it brown nicely from all sides. Stir every 40 seconds or so. Once done, serve with daal chawal and raita!
