Today's recipe is a simple and delicious fry with the okra aka ladies finger which I make often.Here in farmers market I get fresh okras and never forget to buy.
This fry tastes very well with piping hot sambar rice and rasam rice and I always fry this bit crispy.This fry needs to be cooked in a medium flame to get cooked well.To remove the stickiness in the okra my mom uses a tsp of yogurt/curd while frying.Lets get into the recipe...........................

Method

Heat the pan with the oil and crackle the mustard seeds,then add the urad dhal.Then add the curry leaves and crushed garlic then fry the peanuts till it becomes crispy.Add the chopped okra and fry it for 2-3 minutes.
At this stage the okra will be sticky and gooey,add the yogurt and stir in between and keep it in a medium flame till the stickiness disappears.Now add the chilly powder,turmeric powder and salt,mix it well.Fry in a low flame till it becomes slightly crisp,stir in now and then.
