FRESH BHINDI MASALA (SALSA)

Hello everyoneIts long past since I psoted a recipe. Well, I've been busy with our travel India coming soon. Recently, much to my surprise I've got plenty of Okra / ladies finger of my own vegetable garden. I am surprised as it was never serious with my garden or I'm interested in gardening. This time I did my own garden vegetables and for the first couple of months, he had nothing and now with autumn beginning, not expect anything, but behold, that I've got fresh Okra and tomatoes almost every other day. This has motivated interest in gardening plant and maybe next time more vegetable plants. Then, the other day I had about 5-6 Okra in my garden and really wanted to do something like it was so cool. Here it is, directly from my gardenMASALA BHINDI FRESH SALSAINGREDIENTSBHINDI/OKRA/LADIES FINGER: 6-7ONIONS: 1 DIVETOMATOES: 1 DIVEPOTATO: 1 CHOPPED INTO SMALL PIECESGINGER AND GARLIC: CHOPPED 1 TBSP.

Meanwhile in a container apart, stir the Okra/Bhindi fry with a teaspoon of oil and salt until it is lightly cooked, fried and has a color. Finally add the pieces of Okra fried cooked sauce and mix and cook for a couple of minutes.
