Gujarati Bhinda ki Kadhi / Okra and Yogurt Stew

by 20 Comments

Bhinda ki kadi -Mildly spiced okra and buttermilk stew – specialty of Gujarat.

Bhinda ki kadhi- Gujarati cuisine is famous for its snacks and kadhis. Its kadhis are different from U.P and Punjabi style kadhis. Gujaratis love Bhindi/Okra and its widely used in their cuisine.

This Bhinda Ni Kadhi is a slightly thicker version of the famous Plain Gujarati Kadhi and usually served with rice and bhakri. I prefer to use slightly sour yogurt to make this bhinda ki kadhi, but if you are using fresh yogurt then you may add lemon juice to it.

Bhindi ke kadhi is best served with steamed rice and hot roti’s . You may need just few papad and salad to serve with this delicious bhinda kadhi .
