bhindi coconut curry

okra coconut curry - this is another way i cook bhindi or lady fingers at home besides bhindi do pyaza and bhindi masala.

this is a very simple recipe with minimal ingredients. fresh coconut brings a lot of flavor and taste to this dish. basically the curry is a another variation of the goan style okra. this is how my mother makes the recipe at home.

this is a dry curry and you can have it with chapati, phulkas, parathas or bhakri and even bread. it can also be served as a side vegetable dish with dal-rice or sambar-rice. i served this bhindi sabzi with jowar bhakri (sorghum flour flat breads).

in this recipe, i have used kokum as a souring agent. if you don't have kokum then you can use lemon juice or dry mango powder instead. measurements given below in the recipe details.
