Ingredients:
Okra - 20 pieces
2 Tbsp sesame seeds
For the stuffing:
2 tsp coriander powder
1/2 tsp cumin powder
1/4 tsp fennel powder
1/2 tsp garam masala powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp turmeric
For the tempering:
2 green chilli
1 dry red chilli
1/2 cm ginger
1 Tbsp sesame seeds
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
3-4 sprigs of coriander
2-3 Tbsp oil
Salt to taste
Water
Method:
1) Wash okra and dry. Cut the edges and slit it lengthwise but not completely such that masala can be stuffed
2) Mix all the stuffing ingredients and stuff it into slit okra. Keep aside for 10 mins and cut it into chunks. I just sectioned it into two.
3) Dry roast 2 Tbsp sesame seeds. Keep aside
4) Grind green chilli, red chilli, ginger, coriander and 1 Tbsp sesame seeds into a fine paste with 2 Tbsp water
5) Heat 2 Tbsp oil in a shallow pan. Add cumin seeds and fry. Add the ground paste and fry for another 30 seconds. Reduce the heat (to medium).
6) Add okra and fry for a minute. Check for salt. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes - stirring every 5 minutes. Garnish with roasted sesame seeds in the end
DONE!!
Tip: If you feel this to be a bit spicy to your liking, dip it in yogurt while having with rotis :)
