Bhindi Masala / Stuffed Okra

This is my first ever food blog. I love cooking and entertaining guests. This is the recipe i learnt from a friend of mine in Bombay.

Ingredients:

Okra/bhindi - 2 lbs Onions (big) -2 Peanuts - 1 small cup Oil for frying Masalas

====== dhaniya powder -2 tsp

jeera powder - 1 1/2 tsp

Chilli powder - 1/2 tsp

salt - according to taste

amchur - 1/2 tsp

garam masala - 1/4 tsp

oil - 1tsp

Mix all the masala ingredients together with 1 tsp of oil. Slit bhindi length wise and stuff the bhindis with sufficient amount of masala.

. Cut onions lengthwise. Heat oil in a wok/kadai and fry onions till golden brown. Add peanuts to onions and fry for a while. Remove onions and peanuts into a bowl and keep them aside. Now add stuffed bhindis to the remaining oil. Stir bhindis occassionally until they are almost done. Take care not to break bhindis while stirring. When bhindis are cooked add fried peanuts and onions to this and sprinkle any left over masala powder on it. fry for 3-4 minutes. Garnish it with cilantro/coriander leaves.

This curry goes well with both roti and rice.
