素食好主意 【酥炸秋葵】 Crispy Bhindi/Okra Fry


秋葵是个好东西,夏季盛产的时候,买一把回来,做这个酥炸秋葵,可以作为配菜,也可以做小点。很好吃的喔!

Okra/Bhindi is a very healthy vegetable, it has plenty of valuable nutrients, good source of vitamin C, good for brain and is beneficial to diabetes.

Summer is the harvest season for okra, I just bought some from the shop and made this super yummy crispy Okra fry, it is a good side dish, and a good snack too!


材料:
20根 或 大约 200 克 秋葵 
 
粉浆:
3 大勺 鹰嘴豆粉
1 大勺 粘米粉
1 小勺 芝麻 (Optional)
1/4 小勺 辣椒粉
1/4 小勺 孜然粉
1/4 小勺 姜黄粉
1/8 小勺 泡打粉 (Optional)
1/4 小勺 食盐
1 小勺 食油

5-6 大勺 水


Ingredients:
20 or around 200 gms of okra

For batter:
3 tbsp chick pea flour (Besan)
1 tbsp Rice flour
1 tsp sesame seeds(Optional)
1/4 tsp Chilli Powder
1/4 tsp Cummin Powder
1/4 tsp Turmeric Powder
1/4 tsp baking powder (Optional)
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp oil
5-6 tbsp water


把秋葵洗干净沥干水,切去头,垂直划开成四份。

把粉浆所有的材料混合,摆一边十分钟,可以根据浓稠度适当调整水份。

锅里热上两寸油,秋葵拖上粉浆,中火炸成金黄色,沥干油。就好了。

香脆好吃的酥炸秋葵!


Clean the okra, dry up, remove head and slice lengthwise into 4 parts.

Whisk together all ingredients under "batter", leave it aside for 10 minutes. Adjust thickness by adding or reducing water accordingly, we are looking at pancake batter consistency.

Heat up 2 inches of oil at medium heat in a cooking pan, dip okra in batter until it is well coated with batter and fry it until crispy and golden in color.

Crispy spicy Okra fry!

  1. I love okra and especially love Indian style of cooking. Can I replace chick pea flour with normal all purpose flour?
