Potato and lady`s finger masala(dry)


Description:
Combination of these two veggies with make your mouth water and if it has a lovely aroma, then awesome.


Ingredients:
1. Lady`s finger(okra) - 30 small
2. Potato - 2
3. Ginger
4. Garlic
5.Lemon juice/amchur powder
6. Cumin
7. Mustard
8. Green chilli - 3
9. Chilli powder - 1tspn
10. Turmeric powder - 1/2tspn
11. Coriander powder - 1tspn
12. oil
13. salt to taste

Procedure:

Wash and transfer the okra into a sieve to drain out the water. For this recipe we have to make a simple paste which will give this dish a good aroma and tangy taste. Add the ginger,garlic, turmeric powder and green chillies into a grinder  to make a paste. Also squeeze in the lemon. Incase if you are using amchur powder then its ok to add it when we are cooking the dish and if using lemon juice then add it to the paste. Now chop the Okra and potatoes in long strips. I chopped the okra like below

Take a skillet and pour oil. Splutter cumin and mustard seeds. First add the potatoes and cook for few minutes first, because potatoes takes longer to cook than okra. Next add the okra and thrown in the remaining turmeric powder, chilli powder and coriander powder. Mix well and cook for few more minutes before adding the paste. Once you feel both the veggies are cooked then remove the lid. Dry any excess water that remains. Mix well so that all the masalas coats well on the veggies and toss them dry. Dish is ready  and the mouth watering aroma will be filled in your house. Try it
