Ladies Finger Poriyal/Bhindi ki sada subzi

I am reminded of my school days where my mom always insisted on us to eat lots of vendaka. She said you will do good in maths if you had vendaka.Don't know if it did any good to our math skills but it sure did make us eat lots of rasam rice.This is a basic recipe and my favorite.Will post other variations soon. 


Prep Time:20 mins
Ingredients


Vendaka/Bhindi - 500 gms
For Tadka
Urad dhal -1 tbsp
Mustard seeds -1 tsp
Curry leaves - 10-12 leaves
Red chilies (4) or Red Chilli powder -1tsp
Oil-3 tbsp




Make it my way:
  1. Heat oil in a kadai. Add Urad Dhal, mustard seeds,red chillies and curry leaves.

  2. Once the mustard seeds splutter and Urad Dhal starts to changes colour (brown).

  3. Add the vendaka and cook on medium flame till done.Don't stir too many times as it may make the vendaka into pieces.

  4. You will know it is done when there is no more stickness.
