Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Fresh Okra (Bhindi)
- 2 tablespoons Coconut Oil
- 1 teaspoon Mustard Seeds
- 1 teaspoon Cumin Seeds
- 2 whole Green Chili
- 1 inch piece Ginger
- 3 whole Garlic Cloves
- 10 leaves Curry Leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red Chili Powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Coriander Leaves
Instructions
Start by washing the fresh okra thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Cut the okra into small pieces of about 1 cm thickness. Discard the stem ends.
Heat the coconut oil in a pan over medium heat. Once hot, add mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Sauté until they begin to crackle.
Add green chilies, ginger, and garlic. Sauté for another 2 minutes until the garlic turns golden brown.
Add the curry leaves and cook for an additional minute.
Add the chopped okra to the pan. Stir well to mix with the spices. Cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the okra becomes tender and lightly browned.
Sprinkle turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt over the okra. Mix well and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
Remove the pan from heat and let the okra mixture cool slightly.
Transfer the cooled okra mixture to a food processor. Add lemon juice and blend into a semi-smooth chutney. You may add a tablespoon of water if needed to help blend the chutney.
Transfer the chutney to a serving bowl, garnish with fresh coriander leaves, and serve as a side dish for your meal.
