BHINDA WITH CASHEW NUTS

Glossary
Bhinda - Okra/Ladies Finger

While typing out this post to share, I had done a tiny bit of research to find out more about Okra. The 1st thing that comes to mind about Okra is a slimy vegetable when cut into but Did You Know...
"The Okra Pods are among the very low calorie vegetables. They provide just 30 calories per 100 g besides containing no saturated fats or cholesterol. Nonetheless, they are rich sources of dietary fiber, minerals, and vitamins; often recommended by nutritionists in cholesterol controlling and weight reduction programs."
You can  read more about that on the website http://www.nutrition-and-you.com/okra.html

Now this wonderful dish was Prepared and Shared on By one of our Lovelies, Tahera Sayani, and she has kindly shared the recipe she used as well. Thank You Tahera💕
