#indiankitchen - This is my version of a traditional Rajasthani cuisine. It is a simple and a yummy okra curry with some garlicky flavour, which can be made in a jiffy. I made it extra spicy and tangy to suit my taste. It is a dry side dish to be relished with chapatis, but it can also be had with dal-chawal. #goldenapron
