BHINDI CHUTNEY/ COUNTRY FOOD OKRA RECIPE

 COUNTRY FOOD-BHINDI CHUTNEY



Okra is also known as lady's finger and Bhendi in Hindi language, Bendakaya in the Telugu language. Most people know two recipes about Bhendi - one recipe is Bhendi fry and another one is Bhendi curry. Today I am sharing a different Bhendi recipe which is one of my favorite dishes.

A long time ago I ate this Bhendi recipe in a hotel while I was traveling with my family and it is very spicy to eat at that time. But I never tried this recipe. whenever I am very interested to make new recipes then I had tried at once in a little quantity and all the family members, kids also liked this recipe and it is too yummy with hot steamed white rice and adding of a little bit of ghee. I think mouth-watering to you, who are reading this recipe.


My new recipe is Bhindi chutney and I add other extra ingredients for more taste. I know that many people don't like Bhendi recipes because of its mucilage or slimy nature. I had already shared a Bhendi recipe- Bhendi fry, it is crunchy and delicious.

Bhendi chutney is stored only two days and it is not a pickle for storing. In this recipe, I used only fresh lady's finger, and its taste is amazing. I used tomatoes to enhance the taste. This is my own style of preparation and it is very easy to prepare and all the ingredients available in our home. This is a country food and this chutney is a regular recipe in most of the villages in Andhra Pradesh.


LET'S START TO PREPARE:

INGREDIENTS:



  • Lady's ginger - 10
  • Tomatoes -2


  • Coriander seeds -1 spoon

  • After frying the lady's finger, switch off the stove and keep them away for some time.
  • Add this fried lady's finger into the mixer jar, that we had already prepared the green chili paste.
  • Mix the Bhindi in a rough course and take this chutney into a steel bowl.
TAMPERING:

  • Healthy and tasty okra chutney / Bhindi chutney/lady's finger chutney is ready to serve. It is so yummy taste with hot white rice and adds with a little bit of ghee.




This lady's finger chutney is taste-wise so yummy and health-wise also the best recipe. My children commonly don't like the lady's finger but If I prepare this chutney in my home, definitely the Bhindi chutney will complete within a day. Please try in your home and especially elders are like very much this Bhindi chutney and they like old recipes and for a change try this chutney, definitely, they will appreciate you. During in rainy season, just imagine that hot white rice plus ladies finger chutney with a little bit of ghee, I think you are getting mouth-watering, try it once.

TIPS:

  • Add the tomato pieces after the green chilies roast well.
  • Cut the green chilies compulsory, otherwise, they will split.
  • Don't add lady's finger pieces in the roasted green chilies, tomatoes because the Bhindi become a paste.
  • Don't grind all the roasted red chilies, tomatoes, Bhindi pieces in the mixer jar.
  • Only grind the roasted Bhindis for 1 or 2 seconds , otherwise, the chutney becomes a paste-like structure.
  • Roast the red chilies, tomatoes in a vessel and roast the lady's finger in another vessel.
