The disclaimer is that I haven’t tried this yet, but my aunt says it works, and I trust her 
Here’s a combination of bhindi advice from my aunt and my mum.
You know how bhindi (okra/lady finger, and hereafter simply bhindi)…anyway, how bhindi is all sticky and gooey and generally unappetizing? One way to counter that is to deep-fry it, but really. I try not to deep-fry, even though it makes everything taste incredible.
If you buy the frozen chopped bhindi, here’s an interesting way to dry it out. Preheat your oven to 250 F. Thaw the bhindi and wipe it with a paper towel. Or four. Spray a pan with some Pam or suchlike (cooking oil spray), put the bhindi in it, spread it around evenly, spray it again, and bake for 10-15 minutes.
Then cook as you please.
this sounds like a good idea.. but thats just too much prep for making bhindi!
True. I resolve the problem by not making bhindi. It really is too much work.
with frozen okra i always thaw in microwave for 4 min and when frying i add salt to it and you get nice non sticky okra curry
thanks, sree.
I bought frozen okra packet recently and it is written in directions that for better taste use frozen in cooking than thawing in microwave.
