Okra Chutney | Bendekaya Chutney | Bhindi Chutney

Recently I got to know about the famous Andhra recipe “Bendekaya chutney”. Since we like Andhra food a lot, I wanted to give a try. I slightly changed the Okra chutney recipe of Priya and ended up with my version. Here is the hot Bhindi chutney – Okra chutney!!

Okra chutney - Bendekaya chutney - Bhindi chutney
Okra chutney - Bendekaya chutney - Bhindi chutney

Ingredients:

Okra – 100 gms
Coriander seeds – ½ tsp
Mustard seeds – 1 tsp
Cumin seeds – ½ tsp
Red Chilies – 3
Curry leaves
Tamarind – a pinch
Hing or Asafetida – pinch
Salt – to taste

Preparation Method:

  • Heat oil and do seasoning with mustard, cumin seeds and curry leaves.
  • Add the red chilies, coriander seeds, Asafetida and fry them in low flame.
  • Allow them to cool. Meanwhile, deep fry okra in oil.
  • Grind the fried okra and the seasoned mixture with salt and tamarind.
  • Okra Chutney is ready to relish!

Okra chutney – Bhindi chutney can be had with Rice, Dosa or Idly.

Tips and Tricks:

  • Deep fry the okra such that the stickiness goes off.
  • Do not add water while grinding the mixture.
  • We can also add garlic to this recipe.

Even I never knew about this yummy recipe… Thanks to Deepa, she had mentioned about this recipe few days back… I very badly wanted to taste it… after all surfing and searching… i tried the Bhindi chutney!! Heavenly taste dude… do try it out.

Bhindi chutney looks delicious. Never heard of this before! Sounds easy to prepare. Will try out and let u know how it goes.

Anu! Good to see this post on Bhindi Chutney which I announced on thin air and vanished for a while!

All: Would you like to explore this: A small variation from Chef Anu’s version. Instead of adding coriander seeds, add a nice fresh bunch of coriander leaves! The taste is heavenllllly!!! And you could add green chillies instead of dry red chillies. Optionally can add a dash of jaggery (to get a sweet/sour/spice punch!)

Wanna explore?
