Bhindi Kadhi - Okra in a yogurt based gravy with Indian Spices!

In this week's kadhi, Amma decided to add my favourite Bhindi. Bhindi Kadhi is so delicious and very easy to make.

Appa loved this Kadhi and relished a second helping without any hints from Amma! This kadhi is tangy, spicy and just perfect! This can be had with almost anything and hence this is a perfect Side Dish!
