Step 1

Rinse the okra or bhindi in water for 3 to 4 times. Wipe them completely dry with a kitchen napkin. Trim off the crown and the base tip.

Step 2

Slice each okra vertically into 4 pieces.

Step 3

If you have small sized okra, then slice into 2 pieces. Take all your sliced okra in a big plate or a big bowl.

Step 4

Now sprinkle all the spice powders one by one on the sliced okra. Season with salt according to taste.

Step 5

With a spoon or spatula, gently mix the spice powders with the okra.

Step 6

Sprinkle the besan on the okra.

Step 7

Again, gently mix the besan with the okra. The besan and the seasonings must evenly coat the okra slices.

In your kadai (wok) or a frying pan, heat 2 to 3 tablespoons oil.

For the next batch again add 2 to 3 tablespoons oil or as required in the pan. Let the oil become medium hot and then add the marinated bhindi. For each batch add 2 to 3 tablespoons oil or as required while frying.

Step 15

Serve bhindi kurkuri directly as they are or if you want you could garnish okra with coriander leaves, julienned ginger or sliced green chilis.
