To make pyazwali bhindi recipe | Konkani style kokum bhindi | pyaaz wali sukhi bhindi sabzi | heat a broad non-stick pan and add 4 cups chopped ladies finger (bhindi). Lady finger (okra) is the main ingredient in pyaz wali bhindi. It has a slimy texture when raw, but when cooked, it becomes tender and slightly crunchy.
-
Sauté the bhindi for 5 to 8 minutes, until dry.
-
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a deep pan.

Add ½ tsp mustard seeds ( rai / sarson). Mustard seeds are often tempered in hot oil at the beginning of cooking. This process releases their flavor and aroma, and can help to prevent the okra from becoming slimy.

Add 8 to 10 curry leaves (kadi patta). Curry leaves add a distinct aroma and flavor to the sabzi. Their unique fragrance, similar to that of camphor, enhances the overall taste of the dish.
-
Add 2 tsp chopped green chillies. They introduce a level of spiciness that can be adjusted based on the number and type of green chillies used.

I love bhindi very much.. but this recipe with curd.. is just too good.. the sweetness of the onions.. and perfect balanced taste of the spices.. The bhindi is also perfectly cooked.. not getting too mushy. I love to have this with roti..
