Charishma's Very Tasty Bhindi Masala

I cooked this up this afternoon and we all really enjoyed every spoon of this. A dish that is inspired by babbu uncle :)

Heat oil in a wok.

Once hot , toss in the cumin and mustard seeds.

Allow to splutter.

Once it stops spluttering , add green chilli and onions.

Stir-fry on medium heat until browned.

Remove from heat and keep aside in a plate.

Pour 1 / 4 cup of oil in the same wok.

Add the chopped okra and stir-fry for a few minutes until cooked and aromatic.

This way , the okra will not split while cooking and the dish turns out very tasty.

Remove the okra from heat , once fried and lightly browned.

Add the sauteed onion mixture back to the wok and toss in the fried okra.

Mix well to combine and allow to cook for a minute on medium heat.

Now , add all the masala {spice} powders and mix well.

Allow to cook for 5 minutes.

Add the chopped tomatoes , mix well and cover the wok.

Allow the flavours to blend well and the tomatoes to cook until softened.

This takes about 7 minutes.

Uncover , add salt and mix well.

Allow to cook for 2 minutes on medium heat.

Remove from flame and serve hot .
