Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Prepare the Okra

Wash 20 whole okra pods and pat them dry. Make a slit along the length of each okra without cutting through completely, creating a pocket for the stuffing.

2
Make the Stuffing

In a bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of gram flour, 1 teaspoon of ground coriander, 1 teaspoon of ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric powder, 1/2 teaspoon of red chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon of amchur, and 1 teaspoon of salt.

3
Stuff the Okra

Carefully fill each okra pod with the spice mixture, pressing gently to ensure the stuffing stays inside.

4
Cook the Okra

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Place the stuffed okra in the pan and cook for about 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and the spices are fragrant.

5
Serve

Once cooked, transfer the stuffed okra to a serving dish. Enjoy hot as a delicious side dish or part of a main meal.
