Bhindi Aloo is one of the classic vegetable combinations. I cook this Aloo and Bhindi in Mustard oil to get its unique taste, flavor, and aroma. It is healthy too. Then, I have added the dry Indian spices like Red chili powder, Coriander powder, Turmeric, Garam masala, Dry mango powder, and salt.

It is optional to add Onion, Garlic, Ginger, and Tomato in this Bhinda Bataka Recipe for a semi gravy texture. It tastes good as well.

Okra is a low-calorie vegetable rich in vitamins, minerals, and dietary fibers. It has no Saturated fat or cholesterol. It helps to control blood sugar levels. It also helps with weight loss.
