Instructions

In a small bowl, mix together the ginger juliennes, lemon juice, sugar and water.
Keep this pickled ginger aside for a minimum of 40 mins to 1 hour or maximum of 3 hours.
Rinse and pat dry the okra/bhindi. slice off the crown and the tip of the bhindi.
Then make two or three slits on each bhindi, without breaking them.
Heat 3 tbsp oil in a pan. add the bhindi. saute them till they are crisp and browned.
Drain the bhindi on paper towels to remove excess oil.
In the same pan, add ½ tbsp ghee.
Add the besan/gram flour and fry the besan till it changes color and becomes aromatic. keep on stirring while frying the besan so that it does not get burnt.
We should see the fat releasing from the besan.
Add the bhindi to the besan. Stir.
Then add all the spice powders (coriander, dry mango powder, red chilli powder and turmeric powder).
Stir well and sprinkle salt and ½ tbsp water. adding water is optional and we can also skip this step.
Stir and saute, until the roasted gram flour and spice mixture coats the bhindi well.
Lastly, add garam masala and give a stir.
While serving, garnish besan bhindi with the julienned ginger from the sugar syrup along with coriander leaves.
Serve besan bhindi masala hot with roti or chappati or as a side dish with dal rice or curry rice.
