Aloo Bhindi

Ingredients:

* 20 small okra
* 2 potatoes
* 1 spoon cumin seeds
* Masala: 1 spoon dhania powder, 1/2 spoon chilli powder, 1/4 spoon amchur (mango powder)

Process:
NOTE: Since okra tends to become slimy, I cooked the potatoes and the okra separately initially and then put it all together.

* Wash the okra before cutting. Cut the ends off both sides of each okra
* Cut the potatoes into thin, long pieces (about the same size as the okra)
* Add oil in two separate pans. Add cumin seeds in each
* Once the cumin seeds start sputtering add the okra in one pan and the potato in another
* Salt both veggies
* When the okra and potatoes are about 3/4 cooked, transfer all of them into the same pan
* In the now empty pan add a little oil and all the masala powders
* Now add all the veggies back in and stir it all together
* Close and cook (stirring occasionally) until it's all cooked
