Okra is my daughter's favorite vegetable and this is a very very simple recipe.I have done this today for her lunch box along with sambhar.It's a time saver for me especially during a busy day.
Ingredients:
250 gms okra
4-5 green chillies
1 large onion sliced
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
salt to taste
corriander leaves for garnish
1 tsp mustard seeds or avalu
1tsp of sanaga pappu or channa dal
3-4 curry leaves
Process:
1.Chop the okra into small pieces.
2. Heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds,channa dal, curry leaves,chopped onions and green chilli and stir well.
3.Add the turmeric powder to this and stir.I always love to use turmeric as it gives a lovely colour to the dish.
4.Next add the chopped okra and salt to the pan.Be careful while adding salt,it's a one ingredient that can uplift or ruin the taste of the dish
5.Stir everything well and let it cook for about 15-20 minutes on a medium heat.
6.Finally the best part is take it in a bowl and serve hot ,isn't that simple?
Kitchen/cooking tips:
=>Never refrigerate citrus fruits as it kills their flavour,nutrients and texture.
=>To keep cookies fresh place a piece of bread in the cookie jar.
=>Soak almonds in normal water overnight or hot water for 20 minutes to remove their skins easily.
=>Rub your hands with dry salt to remove the odour of garlic or onion from them.
=>To prevent potatoes from budding place them in a bag with an apple in it.
