Kurkuri bhindi recipe crispy and tasty sidedish.Kurkuri bhindi recipe with step by step pictures

I tried this Kurkuri bhindi long back and had this post in drafts so thought of posting it now.I love bhindi / okra so much, so any recipe with bhindi is a winner for me.

I am sure kids will love it too, you can serve it as a snack or as a sidedish for rice.I usually make okra sambar or  bhindi stir fry or sometimes a semi masala version like aloo bhindi so this bhindi fry was an inviting change.

Notes

Add sufficient oil in the kadai, the bhindis should be well immersed in oil while frying.

You can even add a tsp of rice flour but even without it I felt the bhindis crisp.
Adjust the quantity of spice powders according to your preference.
