Punjabi Bhindi Kadhi Recipe - Roasted Okra In Yogurt Curry

Step 1: To begin making the Punjabi Bhindi Kadhi Recipe, we will first start by combining all the main ingredients including curd, gram flour, turmeric powder, coriander powder, red chilli powder and salt in a large saucepan

Step 2: Add 2 cups of water and whisk it all together, until it forms a smooth paste without lumps

Step 3: Place the saucepan on medium heat and bring the Kadhi mixture to a boil

Step 4: While the Kadhi is boiling, keep whisking it continuously, so it becomes smooth

Step 5: Continue to whisk it until you notice it has begun to thicken and the Kadhi is smooth

Step 6: Turn the heat to low at this stage and allow the Kadhi to simmer while we get the remaining ingredients ready

Step 7: Next, heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wok; add in the cut bhindi (okra), sprinkle some salt and stir fry on medium heat until the bhindi is cooked through and has a slightly crispy texture

Step 8: You might want to add a little more oil if required to get the right texture of the bhindi

Step 9: Once ready, keep it aside

Step 10: Heat ghee in a saucepan over medium heat and add in the cumin seeds, cinnamon stick, and dry red chilies and allow them to crackle

Step 11: Stir until the red chilies are roasted well

Step 12: Turn off the heat

Step 13: Add the roasted Bhindi into the Kadhi and give it stir

Step 14: Next pour the seasoning (only after the Kadhi has boiled for about 5 to 7 minutes) over the in the boiling Kadhi mixture

Step 15: Mix everything well and your kadhi is ready to be served
