Stuffed Bhindi | Bharwa Bhindi is a delicious and tasty recipe of Bhindi / Okra stuffed with spices. Though Stuffed Bhindi recipe originates from Punjab , it is quite common throughout India . And each family has their own preferences of spices for stuffing . This recipe of mine is easy and simple with No Onion and NO Garlic.

Stuffed Bhindi

For making this stuffed Bhindi , Dry coconut , puffed gram and spices are blended and then stuffed inside Bhindi and cooked . The only time time consuming job here is drying the bhindi after rinsing it with water. Its very important for bhindi to be completely dry before stuffing the the spices or else it may become very slippery.

Bhindi| Okra is one of my favourite vegetable. Not because it is extremely nutritious but I love the taste of this vegetable. Its known that okra is a high fiber food. But how does this fiber helps ? Okara has soluble fibres in the form of pectins which helps in lowering bad cholesterol levels. Also fiber intake is highly recommended for patients with diabetes because it boosts digestion and also keeps satiated for a long time. Also folate in Okra is beneficial during pregnancy.

Always try using tender and fresh okra for making this Stuffed Bhindi.One more Bhendi Recipe which I often do at home is Tangy Stir Fried Okra . As 5 types of vegetables is recommended per day , try adding wide varieties of recipes in your diet. So that you don’t get bored of eating same taste and crave to eat restaurant food often.

Other Vegetarian Side Dishes recipes on blog are Aloo Methi , Brinjal Fry ,Tangy Okra , Sauteed Spring Onions and Palak Paneer Bhurji
