Bhindi masala is a spiced okra stir-fry that's a staple in many North Indian homes. Unlike stuffed or gravy-based versions, this dry bhindi masala keeps things simple and quick. It’s best enjoyed with warm rotis or as a side with dal-chawal, and it’s perfect for tiffin boxes because it’s non-greasy.
