Instructions: To make the yogurt bhindi recipe, we will first roast or fry the lady finger. For this, heat 2 tablespoons oil in a pan and add chopped onion and lady finger in it. Cover with a little salt and let it cook on low heat. When you cover and cook the lady finger, the lady finger leaves some water and that water helps in cooking it. When the ladyfingers become soft, remove the lid and cook on low flame for a while. The ladyfingers should be cooked enough not to chip and become light brown in color. When this happens, add some more oil to it and sprinkle gram flour and mix it slowly. Doing this will remove the stickiness of the lady finger. Now keep the cooked ladyfinger aside and make curd gravy. To make curd gravy, first take yogurt in a bowl, whisk it with gram flour, grated ginger, garam masala powder, turmeric, red chilli and mix well. Now add 1/2 cup of water and stir it. Now put the curd mixture in the pan and let it cook on low heat and bring it to boil. But keep stirring the curd lightly with your hand so that the curd does not break and cook well. Let it cook until the curd is creamy. When cooked well, add roasted ladyfinger. Let it cook for a while. Taste the taste of other spices and adjust the salt accordingly. Now turn off the gas and put it in a pot. Now let’s prepare for early morning. Heat 1 tablespoon of ghee in a tadka pan. Now add cumin seeds, dry red chillies. Now put this tempering and caramelised onion on top of curd lady finger. Garnish with a little bit of grated green coriander. Dahi Bhindi can be served with garam phulka and kachumbar salad.
