Achari Bhindi Recipe / Pickled Okra Fry is a tasty and classic north Indian dish, goes very well with rice / paratha/ roti. Making achari bhindi is very simple, first shallow fry the okra, then sauté it with onion, tomato, green chilly and curry powder. Finally stir it with readymade pickle. Here I used Ahmed mixed pickle. Usually tempering is done with panchphoran, I didn’t use that instead I added the pickle which has panchphoran so it added the flavor to this dish. So try this flavorful okra stir fry for parath or roti.
