Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons Rulife Cold Pressed Groundnut Oil
- ½ teaspoon black or brown mustard seeds
- ½ teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 1 1/4 pounds bhindi, trimmed and sliced 1/2 inch thick (about 5 cups sliced)
- 2 teaspoons Stone-Ground Coriander powder
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1/2-1 teaspoon Red Chilli powder
Recipe:
- Heat oil in a large pan over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute, covering the pan as needed to contain any splattering.
- Reduce heat to medium, add onion and saute until it starts to turn brown. Let it cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Add bhindi, increase heat to medium-high and cook until the 'goo' or mucilage from the okra starts to release, and the onion darkens, 4 to 6 minutes more.
- Add coriander, salt, turmeric and chilli powder to taste; cook, stirring often, until the bhindi turns brown in spots and looks dry. Cook for 6 to 10 minutes more.
- It's now ready to serve.
