Author: Dabbawal
Serves: 2
Ingredients
- 250g okra
- oil for frying
- 60g gram flour
- ½ tsp turmeric powder
- ½ tsp red chilli powder
- 4 tsp chaat masala
- salt

Method
- Wash okra and dry thoroughly.
- Remove the stem of each okra and slice thinly lengthwise.
- Put in a large bowl and sprinkle over all the dry ingredients, except the salt.
- When you’re ready to cook, season with salt just before frying (you leave it until the last minute or the okra will release water and go soggy).
