Bhindi Recipes - Indian Okra Recipes

By Petrina Verma Sarkar, About.com

Bhindi, also known as Okra and Ladyfinger, is a versatile and easy vegetable to cook. You can fry it, curry it, stuff it.... It is also one of my top favorites veggies. Here are some delicious dishes you can make with it.

Bhindi Ki Subji - Bhindi Subzi - Stir-fried Okra

This simple dish tastes great when teamed with Rajma (red kidney bean curry) and hot chapatis (Indian flatbread) or parathas (pan-fried Indian flatbread).

Bharvaan Bhindi - Stuffed Okra

Bharvaan Bhindi is the perfect crunchy accompaniment to plain boiled rice and a Daal (lentil dish) of your choice.

Dahi Bhindi - Okra in Yogurt Sauce

This tangy dish tastes great with hot Chapatis (Indian flatbread) and Lehsuni Daal (garlic flavored lentils).

Kurkuri Bhindi - Crispy Fried Okra

Serve with plain boiled rice and your favorite Daal (lentil dish) and you've got a tasty and nutritious meal.

Jhinga Bhindi Fry - Prawns And Okra Stir-fry

Really quick and easy to make! Serve with hot Chapatis.

Sindhi Kadhi

Serve this yummy Sindhi dish with a long-grained, fragrant rice like Basmati. Since it's full of vegetables and made with tomatoes and gram flour, it's also nutritious.

Tomato Kadhi

Tangy, tasty and so simple to make, Tomato Kadhi goes really well with plain boiled rice.

Sambar - South Indian Lentil Curry

Serve Sambar piping hot with Idlis, Vadas or just plain and simple boiled rice.
