Bhindi Paratha |
Bhindi Paratha is a Sindhi delicacy also known as bheendijo
phulko, another stuffed indian bread.
I have seen people
eat steamed okra (what? I know) Bhindi
paratha, not so odd now. However, believe me it’s simply delicious. Finely chopped
okra mixed with chili powder stuffed and rolled out in chapatti dough.
Seriously, it can’t get simpler than this.
Bhindi/ Okra |
I really don’t need a reason to eat bhindi paratha, but if
you are looking for one I would say imagine cutting down on the time and oil
that goes into making fried bhindi sabzi.
Serves: 4 to 6 parathas
Ingredients:
Bhindi/okra-175gm or 20 pieces
Chilly powder- 1 tsp
Turmeric powder- ½ tsp

Salt to taste
For the dough:
1 ½ Cup Aatta

Oil 1tsp.
Water enough to knead the dough.
Method.
1. Knead the dough, and leave aside.
2. Wash, dry and Cut the top and tails.
3. Slit the okra, horizontally and vertically
4. Chop the okra as fine as possible.
5. Add the oil, salt, chilly powder, turmeric to
okra and mix
6. Make a dough balls, flatten out and stuff the
okra ( a tbsp. and a half) and roll it out ( you will have some stuffing oozing
out which is fine, that’s what makes it more delicious)
