Aloo Bindi Curry/Potato and Okra Curry


Coming to the day 2 of Blogging Marathon #57,sharing a dry curry with potato and okra.Initially I was bit hesitate to try this combo.But after seeing in a cookery show I was so confidence to try.In the original recipe both potato and okra are deep fried.Here I pan fried both veggies in a low flame to minimise the calories.Again the okra and tomato used are home grown and harvested more than 10 lbs of okra and 30 lbs of tomatoes for the whole summer.The okras were so fresh and tender.With no further delay lets move on to the recipe........................................
