Simple Bhindi Aloo recipe

Ingredients: 
भिन्डी /Lady finger chopped into thin pieces (250 gm)
आलू /Potato chopped into small pieces (2-3)
Asafoetida/ हींग
Coriander powder/ धनिया powder
Red Chili powder
Chat masala
Salt to taste

Method 
  • Heat 3-4 spoons of oil in a thick bottomed frying pan. Add granulated or powdered asafoetida to it.
  • Now add the chopped potato and lady finger to it, stir properly and add salt to it as per taste.(Cut potatoes smaller as they take a lot of time to get cooked in the frying pan)
  • Keep stirring in between and also cover with a lid
  • When both bhindi and aloo are cooked, add all the masalas namely, Coriander powder, chilli powder and chat masala and stir
  • Fry for 2-3 minutes more with lid closed after adding all masalas
  • Bhindi aloo is ready to eat :)
Note : This recipe requires a little more oil than the regular amount used. If proper amount of oil is not used, aloo can stick to frying pan. A good alternative is to use a non-stick frying pan, that ways oil will be consumed less
