I have made use of onions to make bhindi ki sabzi and is a very popular north Indian side dish that is eaten with roti or chapathi.

In northern India, roti or phulka is highly preferred and one needs to have many side vegetarian dishes to serve with them and therefore, different kinds of veg sabzi recipes are made with chapati.

Bhindi is often made in various ways like in down south I have made bhindi masala, bhindi fry, bendakaya vepudu, bhindi gosht is a Hyderabadi form and bhindi ki sabji is north Indian method.

There is not much difference in south Indian and north Indian cooking techniques with vegetables. South Indians too eat all these veggies and curries but in north India less spicy is preferred.

Important points to remember while making bhindi

• Bhindi is a very sticky vegetable and it often gets sticky while cutting or chopping.
•  One should always wash bhindi first, then wipe it with a cloth until it gets dry and free from any moisture. This is an important step to make bhindi. Next step is to chop off its head and tail. Then chop it into pieces.
• If you cut bhindi or ladies finger directly after washing and without wiping it dry then, the whole curry or sabzi turns sticky.
• Please take care of these tips while making any okra recipe.
