Baked Bhindi Fry ( Okra Fry )

Jyoti Behrani
Baked Bhindi Fry (Okra Fry) is a delicious, hands down one of the best ways to cook okra. This spicy, crunchy dish is made with just one simple vegetable – okra and a few Indian spices. Easy to make, makes an excellent weeknight dinner. Enjoy this dish with some Indian flatbread – roti, paratha, or naan. This dish is a VEGAN, GLUTEN-FREE, PALEO, and LOW-CARB recipe.

INGREDIENTS FOR BAKED BHINDI FRY ( OKRA FRY )

Instructions
 

PREP FOR BAKED BHINDI FRY ( OKRA FRY )

  • You will need one 9*13 inches Baking Sheet
  • Wash the okra. Spread okra on a clean kitchen towel and pat dry to absorb any extra moisture.
  • Discard the top part of the okra. Cut the okra vertically (lengthwise) in half, and then cut each half vertically into 2.
  • Spread the cut okra onto the baking sheet.
  • Add all the spices – coriander powder, red chili powder, turmeric powder, cumin powder, amchur powder, oil, and salt to taste.
  • Gently, toss the bhindi to coat masala (spices) evenly, using your hands.

BAKE BHINDI FRY ( OKRA FRY)

  • Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the baking sheet on the topmost shelf.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, and toss the okra halfway through.
    Note: Different oven temperature settings work differently. It took me around 25 minutes of cooking time.
  • Depending upon how crunchy you like okra, you can add a few extra minutes of cooking time. I took them out after 25 minutes of baking.
  • Dish out okra in a serving dish. Garnish with some fresh cilantro and some freshly squeezed lemon juice (optional). Serve baked okra fry with some Indian flatbread – roti, naan, paratha. I also like to serve some Tidali Dal on the side. Enjoy!
