- 1.Before starting to cook, prepare the vegetable.
- The list of ingredients mentions that the ladies fingers must be washed and dried. This is important.
- You will not enjoy cutting wet bhindis and also, they will take longer to cook and turn out mushy and messy.
- So either wash them and leave them to dry in a colander under a fan or if you are in a hurry, wash them and gently wipe dry before cutting them.
- To cut, first from the whole lot of vegetable, cut off the top bit of the stem and a tiny portion from the bottom.
- After that, you can take 5-6 bhindis together, lay them on the chopping board and cut them into small pieces.
- Keep aside.
- Heat the oil.
- Drop in the cumin.
- Let it turn a shade darker.
- Drop in the turmeric, chilli and coriander.
- Fry a few seconds.
- Add the onion.
- Fry for 2 minutes. It should turn just transparent, not brown.
- Add the vegetable.
- Stir to bring the spices and onions up to the top.
- On medium heat, without covering, cook the vegetable for 15-20 minutes.
- At the end of this time, you will notice that the stickiness that was earlier there when stirred is practically gone and the vegetable is a little more than half-cooked.
- Add the salt and pepper, cover the pan, put the tava underneath it and cook another 6 minutes.
- Now check that the vegetable is done.
- Add the mango powder, stir in and keep on the fire another 2 minutes You may omit the onions altogether, add whole button ones or add the same sliced onions along with the salt.
- They will be crunchier at the end.
