Crispy fried okra is a perfect snack or appetizer which will be enjoyed by all at any time. Kurkuri means crispy and bhindi means okra.
Okra is marinated in spices, coated with flour which is then fried to perfect. This is a great side dish along with dal and rice. My little one eats them directly from the time it is drained on the kitchen towel.
I love all the curries made out of okra. As a kid, I used to tell my mom to prepare simple okra fry a lot. But my husband is completely opposite. As you all might know by this time that he doesnt like many vegetables and okra being one among them. The dish using okra is not made regularly, but sometimes I do want some dishes which are dear to my heart and which I grew up eating. Luckily my daughter loves any dish made out of okra.
