Bhindi with onions

The other day I was in my class till noon and forgot completely about food while chatting with my students. Did not realise that it was already 1 PM and hubby was home and would be out of his home office any minute asking for food. God! what to do in such short time. Well, came up with this quick bhindi bhaji and there were rotis.

Ingredients

Bhindi / Okra - washed, dried and cut lengthwise
1 medium onion - roughly chopped
2 tablespoons oil
salt to taste
1 teaspoon dhania jeera powder
1 teaspoon paprika powder
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
a pinch of amchoor (dry mango powder)

Method

In a karahi add the oil. When it gets hot, add the bhindi and saute it till everything is covered in oil. Cover and let it cook for 5 minutes. Now, add the chopped onions, dhania jeera powder, paprika powder, turmeric powder, amchoor powder and salt. Mix well, cover and let it cook on low medium heat till the bhindi is cooked through. This should take about 10 minutes.
Serve with rotis and curds.
