Bendakay fry/ okra fry

Okra fry is one of my favorite curries of all time. Not only it tastes good but it is also rich in vitamins. So lets start making a tasty and healthy okra fry curry.


Ingredients:
250 grams okra
1 spoon channa dal
1 spoon urad dal
1 spoon mustard seeds
1 spoon cumin seeds
8 cashews
1/2 spoon red chilly powder
1/2 spoon turmeric powder
2 spoons dry coconut
Salt to taste
4 spoons oil
Curry leaves

Method:

1. Chop okra into round shaped pieces. Then heat up the pan add oil, channa dal, urad dal, mustard seeds, cumin seeds, cashews, turmeric powder and curry leaves.


2. After the mixture is roasted add okra to the pan and keep lid on for just 5 minutes.  If you keep lid on for more than that the mixture will become sticky due to gummy nature of okra.

3. After okra becomes soft add red chilly powder and salt.  Let it fry for another 5 minutes.

4. Before turning off the stove add dry coconut and it will bring more taste to the curry.


5. Transfer to the serving bowl.  Enjoy it with rice or roti.
