Kurkuri Bhindi / Crispy Fried Okra Recipe

10.5 oz Okra (Bhindi)

Rice flour

Semolina (Sooji/Rava) (fine)

tbsp Nigella seeds (Kalonji)

tsp Fennel Seeds (Saunf)

(adjust

tsp Ground Turmeric (Haldi powder)

tsp Kashmiri red chili powder (adjust

Water

Oil (for deep-frying (1 tbsp for air fryer))

Lime wedges

Wash okra and then pat dry with a kitchen towel. Using a sharp knife, slice the okra lengthwise in half or quarters depending on their size.&nbsp;

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, semolina, nigella seeds, fennel seeds, salt, turmeric and chili powder. Whisk to combine and then pour in the water to make a thick batter.&nbsp;

Add the sliced okra to the batter and toss it around to coat all the slides. Set aside for 15 minutes.&nbsp;

When ready to deep-fry, place a heavy bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Pour in the oil to a depth of about 1 inch. Have a plate layered with a kitchen towel ready.&nbsp;

Depending on how big your pan is, add the okra slices carefully, without overcrowding the pan. Tossing and turning, fry the okra for about 5 minutes or until golden brown in color. Remove from the pan using a slotted spoon and place on the kitchen towel. The okra tastes best when served immediately.&nbsp;

For Deep-frying:

Place half of the okra slices in the air fryer basket, spreading them out as much as possible (if you have a large air fryer, you could do all at once). Spray some oil on the spread okra slices.&nbsp;

Cook at 330˚F for 10 mins. Remove and shake the okra, then cook at 350˚F for about 2-5 mins until crispy.&nbsp;Serve immediately.&nbsp;

For Air Fryer:

This quick and easy Crispy Okra recipe is spicy and zingy with just the right amount of crunch to serve as an appetizer, snack or side.
