Kurkuri Bhindi
I love eating boiled bhindi!! For non- Bengalis this might
sound strange. However in Bengali cuisine “sheddo” or boiled vegetables is an
integral part of the daily food. We eat boiled radish, pumpkin, krela, bhindi,
lauki, raw banana, and the list is endless. My favorite is, however, boiled
bhindi!!
This post is not about boiled bhindi. It is at the opposite
end of the spectrum.
Kurkuri bhindi. Deep fried as opposed to boiled. Crispy as
opposed to slimy. What is common, however, is that both taste yummy!!
Ingredients
250 gms bhindi, slit into very fine strips
½ cup cornflour
4 tbsp besan
Salt to taste
1 tsp red chilli powder(optional)
Mix the slit bhindi, cornflour, besan, salt and red chilli
powder. Keep aside for half an hour. Deep fry. Your kurkuri bhindi is ready.
