Method
- 1 Wash the okra, pat it dry, and let it sit for 10 minutes; damp okra will become slimy when stir-fried.
- 2 Roast besan flour in a dry pan for 3 minutes until fragrant, then mix with coriander powder, cumin, turmeric, chili, and salt.
- 3 Slice each okra pod lengthwise along a continuous line, then stuff it with the spice mixture.
- 4 Arrange the beans in a single layer in a pan of hot oil, let it sit for 4 minutes without stirring until the bottom is browned.
- 5 Gently stir with a spoon, cover and simmer for 12 minutes, then sprinkle with chaat masala before serving.
