Bharwa Bhindi | Stuffed Ladysfinger Fry, a traditional and richest dry curry. Okras are stuffed with spices and then shallow frying them in oil makes them crispy and yummy dish. Bharwa Bhindi is a perfect dish which would be liked by all. By using a non-stick wide pan, we can use very less oil to fry the Bhindis. There are many variations available for the stuffing that we can use for this dry curry. I am using simple masalas which are readily available in the kitchen for the stuffing. This Bharwa Bhindi (Stuffed Ladysfinger Fry) would be a perfect accompaniment to any rice varieties / roti / pukhas.

Tips to make best tasting Bharwa Bhindi

  1. Cook in Low Flame – If you cook in high flame, the Okras will get brown quickly but it won’t get cooked.
  2. Enable Uniform cooking – Turn the Okra every 2-3 minutes to enable cooking from all the sides and enable uniform cooking.
  3. Don’t clutter the cooking pan – If we spread the Okra  in a single layer then this will help in even cooking. If we clutter then some Okras may not get cooked properly
  4. Dry the Okras  before cooking it.
  5. Cook the Okras in open, do not need to cover it.

Ingredients

  • 20 Lady Finger / Okra / Bhindi
  • 3 tbsp Oil For Shallow Frying

For Spice Powder Stuffing

  • ½ tsp Garam Masala
  • ¼ tsp Turmeric Powder
  • 2 tsp Coriander Powder
  • 1 tsp Cumin Powder
  • ¼ tsp Amchoor Powder (Dry Mango Powder)
  • 1 tsp Red Chili Powder
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • 2 tsp Oil

Instructions 

  • For Bharwan Bhindi (Stuffed Ladysfinger Fry), always use tender ladysfinger. Wash and dry pat each ladysfinger.
  • Chop the heads of the ladysfinger. Cut each ladysfinger into 2 halves but not till the end

Stuffing Process

  • In a plate or bowl, add all the spice powders and give a mix.
  • Add oil to the spice powder and mix well
  • Take each ladysfinger open up the cut portion and using your point finger (or a small teaspoon), apply little masala and close it. Repeat the same for rest of the ladysfinger 

Shallow Frying

  • Heat oil in a pan. Place the stuffed okra side by side without cluttering. Cook in low flame. Gently flip on each side at regular intervals (say every 2 minutes) and make sure to cook all sides without burning.

Serving

  • Serve the crispy and yummy Bharwa Bhindi with roti, paratha, jeera rice or any rice of your choice!

Notes

  1. Wash and dry the bhindi completely before stuffing. If the bhindi is wet it will become more sticky
  2. Arrange bhindi without cluttering. We need space to flip them around while cooking
  3. Use low flame to cook bhindi to prevent it from burning
