Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Okra
- 3 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Garam masala
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro leaves
Instructions
Wash the okra thoroughly under running water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or let them air dry completely to prevent sliminess.
Trim the ends off the okra and cut them into 1-inch pieces.
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the cumin seeds to the hot oil and let them crackle for a few seconds until fragrant.
Add the okra pieces to the skillet. Stir well to coat the okra in the oil.
Sprinkle the turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt over the okra. Stir well to combine the spices with the okra.
Cook the okra on medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes or until they turn tender and slightly crispy. Make sure to not overcrowd the pan or stir too much, as this can make the okra slimy.
Once the okra is cooked, sprinkle garam masala over it and squeeze fresh lemon juice. Stir everything gently to mix.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro leaves.
Serve hot as a side dish with your main course. Enjoy your Keto Bhindi Fry!
