Ingredients
- 500 grams Okra (Bhindi)
- 3 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon Asafoetida (Hing)
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Wash the okra thoroughly under running water and dry them completely using a kitchen towel. Ensure there is no moisture, as this can make the okra slimy during cooking.
Step 2
Trim the ends off the okra and cut them into 1-inch pieces.
Step 3
Heat the coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat.
Step 4
Once the oil is hot, add the cumin seeds and let them splutter for a few seconds.
Step 5
Add the asafoetida to the oil and stir briefly.
Step 6
Add the chopped okra to the pan and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 7
Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well to coat the okra evenly with spices.
Step 8
Cover the pan with a lid and cook for 15-18 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the okra is tender and cooked through. Ensure the lid is slightly ajar to allow steam to escape, preventing slime formation.
Step 9
Once done, turn off the heat and sprinkle the lemon juice over the dish.
Step 10
Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot.
