Everyone in my home loves bhindi aka okra aka ladies fingers vegetable so much that I make this subji every week. It's easy, quick, delicious and wholesome too . Bhindi is a nutritious , low calorie vegetable which has high fibre content. It helps in digestion and clears the stomach from constipation, bowel problems and inflammation. It's a good memory booster, helps in retaining healthy eyesight and skin. It's also helps in weight loss.
