Pyazwali Bhindi

The usually fried ladies fingers are cooked in minimal oil to suit the needs of people facing acidity due to oily foods. Onions are a very good cure to combat acidity, hence have them frequently.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes. Cooking Time: 13 minutes. Serves 4.

Ingredients
3 cups sliced ladies finger (bhindi) , cut into halves
1 tbsp oil
2 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
1 tsp nigella seeds (kalonji)
1½ cups thinly sliced onions
¼ tsp turmeric powder (haldi)
2 tsp ginger (adrak) paste
1 tsp finely chopped green chillies
Salt to taste
¾ cup thick fresh curds (dahi)

For serving
Parathas or rotis

Method
1. Heat the oil in a non-stick kadhai, add the cumin seeds and nigella seeds and sauté on a medium flame for 30 seconds.
2. When the seeds crackle, add the onions and sauté on a medium flame for 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Add the turmeric powder, ginger paste, green chillies and 1 tbsp of water, mix well and sauté on a medium flame for 1 to 2 minutes.
4. Add the ladies finger and salt, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 4 to 5 minutes ot till they become little tender.
5. Add the curds, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 1 to 2 minutes or till the curds dry out, while stirring occasionally.
Serve hot with a rotis or parathas.

Handy tips:
1. Bhindi tends to get sticky while cooking. Do not cover the pan while cooking and the stickiness will dry out without the presence of steam.
2. Cook the bhindi over a slow flame for best results.
