Okra (Bhindi) Sambar Okra (Bhindi) Sambar
This is another south canara favorite, called "bol koddel" in local-speak. You can create variations of this, by replacing Okra with any vegetable with a hard texture, like cucumber, squash, beets, radishes and so on. They all taste different, and the end product tastes quite different in each case. Enjoy! Rahul Nodu Shivananda -
