Steps

20 mins

1

Wash the bhindi (okra) and then dry thoroughly. If this is not done, the bhindi will be sticky and slimy when cut in the next step.
2

Remove the top stem of each bhindi (okra) and then slit diagonally into thin slices.
3

Heat the oil in a pan on a medium flame. Do not heat the oil too much as bhindi burns quickly when deep fried.
4

Put the bhindi in a large mixing bowl and sprinkle all the above dry ingredients on it.
5

Season with salt just before frying or else bhindi will release water and become soggy.
6

Deep fry the bhindi a little at a time, until crisp and drain on the paper towels. Garnish with lime juice and juliennes of ginger.
