While experimenting with flavours in my kitchen, I changed the flavours a little and came up with two simple recipes which I can definitely call my own since I have never heard of this combination. The first recipe I came up with was a fusion recipe of North and South flavours. Typically, sambar masala and coconut is used mainly used in southern dishes, but in this case, I have used them with my other spices. It was spicy, tangy, bold, and delicious. I regret not using this combination in bhindi before. The second one is also a fusion recipe and we have ventured into Morocco with this spice mix. Yes, you guessed right, I have used a Harissa spice mix for highlighting the Moroccan flavours of my stuffing. It is delicious as well.
Important steps to remember while making the stuffed okra/Bhindi-
- Try to use almost the same size okra for this recipe- it will look much prettier when you serve.
- Cut both the ends of the Okra and make a slit with a sharp knife.
- Take the help of a spoon or your finger for stuffing the spice mix into the okra. Perfection is not required, but try to stuff it nicely.
