To make this spicy gramflour onion okra curry we need okra, onion ,roasted gramflour and some spices . If we cook okra in right way it turned into a fantastic recipe otherwise sometimes it become so soggy and taste less and many people don’t like it . But I always love okra which we also called bhindi and i cooked it in many ways . This is one of my favourite recipe which i love to have in lunch frequently.

- Okra 300 gram
- Onion 2
- Gram flour 2 tbsp
- Oil 2 tbsp
- cumin seeds 1 tsp
- Mustard seeds 1 tsp

- Turmeric powder 1 tsp
- red chilli powder 2 tbsp

PROCESS ✅
First wash the okra and dry them well . Dry them for 1 hour otherwise wipe well with clean cloth .
Now cut the okra, if the size is medium than cut in 2 parts and make one cut like this so okra can observe all spices well and cook easily.
On the other side took onion and cut in big pieces .
Now heat 2-3 tbsp mustard oil and fry the onion.
When the onion become golden brown , remove all onion in another dish .
Now in the same kadai and with same oil we made this okra curry . Add cumin and mustard seeds . If you want to can also add hing . When seeds start to crackle add okra and saute for 1 minute. Now add salt and turmeric powder and cook for 1-2 min till okra cooked more than 50% . Cooked at low flame and don’t cover the lid .
On the other side take pan or kadaia and dry roast the gram flour . It take 1-2 min only and immediately remove the gramflour in other dish . This time i roast extra gram flour because i made one more recipe which I’ll share later .
Now check the okra. If it cooked almost 60% than add other spices and again cook for 1-2 min .
When the okra is almost cooked add roasted gram flour and the fried onion and give it a good mix.
Now cover the lid and cook for some seconds .
Your dry okra onion gramflour curry is ready to enjoy.
That day I enjoyed it with chapati.
This is easy to make and taste fantastic. Even kids also like this . If you want to make it more spicy you can also add green chilies. Or you can adjust spice according to you .
