Bhenda Kismuri

Hello dear readers! Today I’m going to share an easy peasy recipe called Bhenda kismuri. Bhend means Ladys finger or Okra. Whenever there is excess Bhend in the fridge we may prepare this or can be prepared just like that. Recently my sister Durga Nayak had posted this dish in her insta page and I was tempted to try it. We just loved it. We Konkani’s prepare different types of Kismuri’s. Sometimes we prepare instant like this and many a times we grind the masala and prepare. Same recipe may be prepared with Bittergourd, Ivy gourd,Long beans, Yam etc.  Kismuri is best had immediately after mixing for better results. Rice, dhali thoy and Kismuri is a best combination.
