Okra (Bendakai) Spicy Raita Curry

Cut the okras into two inch pieces.

Take two glasses of water and heat. Add okra pieces, tamarind pulp and turmeric power and cook until the okra pieces become tender. Remove the pieces into a plate.

Grind the mustard seeds and red chillies into a fine paste adding two spoons of oil. Keep this aside.

To a deep bottomed frying pan, add oil and heat. Now add the onion paste and fry until brown. Next add the garlic bulbs and the curry leaves and fry further.

Add the boiled okra pieces and enough salt. Mix well and fry stirring constantly but carefully.

Finally add the chilly-mustard paste, mix thoroughly and remove the pan from the stove.

Serve hot with Rice.
