Spiced Indian fried okra - a crispy, savory side dish with turmeric, red chile powder, asafetida, and tangy chaat masala.
Ingredients:
  • 2.5 cups fresh okra, ends trimmed
  • 5 tablespoons chickpea flour (besan)
  • 1 teaspoon ginger paste
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 0.5 teaspoon red chile powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 pinch asafoetida powder
  • 1 pinch carom seeds
  • salt to taste
  • oil for frying
  • 1 teaspoon chaat masala, or to taste
Instructions:
  • Cut each okra pod into 4 long pieces. Combine with chickpea flour, ginger paste, lemon juice, chile powder, turmeric, asafetida, carom seeds, and salt in a bowl; mix well to coat evenly.
  • Heat a generous amount of oil in a deep saucepan until shimmering. Gently slide the okra in small batches into the hot oil. Fry until beautifully golden and crispy, around 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and continue with the rest of the okra.
  • Garnish with a sprinkle of chaat masala before serving.
