BHINDI BLAST (Broasted OKRA) RAMAZAN SPECIAL

BHINDI BLAST (Broasted Okra)

(RAMAZAN SPECIAL)

Bhindi, Okra or Lady Finger is used as a vegetable in Pakistan in different styles. Fried Bhindi is more liked.  It is also very healthy. Its origin is disputed among South Asia, West Africa, and Ethiopia.

Bhindi helps control Blood Sugar and helpful in the treatment of  Diabetics. In sub-continent Bhindi is a favorite dish for elders as young people mostly go for fast food. 

I have tried to make it a favorite for the younger generation as well by making it in the line of crispy broast or deep fried crispy chicken.  Though it is not really a Broast but very near to it. Try it and send me your comments.

Let us start our Spicy and Crispy Bhindi with the name of ALLAH.

WHAT WE NEED FOR OUR BLAST:

1. 500 grams Bhindi, Okra or Lady Finger
2. 1-1/4 Cups Gram Flour
3. 2 Tablespoon Corn Flour
4. 3-4 Tablespoons Red Chili Flakes
5. 3-4 Tablespoons Chat Masala (Recipe of Homemade Chat Masala is given in this Blog)
6. 1 Tablespoon Cummin Seeds (Roasted and Grounded)
7. 2 Tablespoons Vinegar
8. Salt to taste
9. Oil for deep frying

HOW WE ARE GOING TO BLAST:

• Wash and dry Bhindi first.
• Cut it lengthwise into 4 pieces of each pod
• Now Mix all the spices in cut Bhindi except Gram Flour and set aside for 10 minutes
• Start mixing Gram flour in it with a little amount of water and set aside when everything is mixed together. The batter will be sticky, neither watery nor thick.
• Heat oil on medium and then lower the flame.
• The batter will be sticky, so use 2 forks to put little by little in the hot oil like frying Pakoras.
• When it turns Golden brown take out and place them on the bunch of Tissue papers to dry out the excess oil.
• When all of the bhindi is on the Tissue papers, cut each pakora in 2 and fry it again for a few minutes to make it extra crispy.
• Serve hot with Sweet n Sour Chutney and Chii Garlic Sauce or any dip you prefer.

This Bhindi blast may be added to the list of other delicacies prepared during Ramazan. I am sure you'll be asking for more. Kids and teens will also love this crispy and spicy dish.

Throw away any FEAR OF FAILURE and have this delicious Crispy n Spicy Bhindi any time.

Our next recipe InshaALLAH will be "Kery Ki Khatti Mithi Chutney"
