Crispy Bhindi Fry makes a tasty accompaniment with any meal. It is loved by one and all.
Bhindi is the common name for ladies finger or okra. It is a versatile vegetable which can be turned into crispy fried savouries or as a stir fry. The stuffed okra is simply irresistible. The weather calls for fried food and I ended up frying it, Tasty Bhindi Fry is on the blog today. I like this recipe for it’s simplicity, no extra dressings or garnishing; but yet, it is tasty and loved by all.
It makes a good accompaniment with hot steamed rice, a dollop of ghee elevates the taste. The best way is to eat it along with rice and sambar.

Bhindi fry is my all time favourite with dal chawal, your recipe is definitely an evergreen recipe just loving it.
I have never fried bhindi, I might try one day. Thanks for sharing.
I love the crunch element of Bhindi Fry. It’s been years I made this. Hubby would love this. I guess once in a while I could make this for him
Fried okra is a common dish in the southern states of the U.S. I never cared for it when I was a child. Now, I much prefer pickled okra. The plants make beautiful ornamantals.
I hardly make fried version of okra but your post is tempting me try this crispy crunchy spiced okra soon. It would make a perfect treat with dal chawal.
I love the idea of spicy fried okra. I bet this would be good as a TV watching munching snack as well as a side dish. Thank you for sharing!
I love bhindi! We fry okra in the American south differently, but I love it both ways. The chili here looks so yummy!
We love crispy fried bhindi anytime. This is such a delicious treat and the crunch of those tender bhindis is a so exciting
This is one of my favourite dishes. I can eat it with anything from chapatti to rice and plain too. Love it Jayashree .
Crispy bhindi with few spices, now that is definitely tempting. We love fried okra, but nowadays don’t make it too often.
I hope my husband does not see this crispy and fried bhindi. He would want me to make this as bhindi is his favourite and that too fried. Looks crispy and yummy
