This is one of the old recipes - a day to day dish in many houses,especially in Tamilnadu ,Kerala…mainly this is a part southern Indian cuisine .it’s just a side dish.

I love okra…my mom never used to add coconut in her okra stir fry..I had okra with grated coconut as stir fry in Chennai when I was there for an official visit..years back…but taste captured my attention..of course a few changes to adjust to my taste and my recipe for the dish is ready 😌

Garlic as an ingredient is optional.I don’t use it when my parents or in laws are there,since they don’t use garlic..I grew up in an house hold where garlic was never used.nothing changed post marriage..but as time passed ,and I started cooking,things changed.but I still respect their choices..

Hi there! I’m a 48-year-old hardcore Malayalee woman from Kerala, married, and blessed (or occasionally cursed, depending on the day) with two kids. Being a true-blue Mallu, I come with all the bells, whistles, and tantrums that you’d expect—because why not keep life spicy?Cooking is my superpower; I can whip up a feast faster than my family can decide what they want. When I’m not playing chef, I’m either diving into a book, splashing colors on a canvas, or, let’s be honest, nagging my husband—my favorite pass time!I can be sweet as sugar if you’re on my good side, but cross me, and you’ll meet the hurricane version of me. Blame my raging hormones, my Mallu genes, or just life in general, but grumpiness is my default mode these days. (Let’s just say “patience” and I aren’t exactly on speaking terms.)All said and done, I love my chaotic, colorful life and wouldn’t trade it for the world—well, maybe for a quiet afternoon nap, but that’s negotiable!
