Bhindi Do Pyaza

Bhindi Do Pyaza is a north indian dish. The hindi name for Okra/Ladyfinger is Bhindi and for onions is Pyaz. Do in Hindi means twice or double. Do pyaza denotes presence of double the quantity of onions than that found in any other style of preparation. The curds added towards the end of this dish add more sharpness to this dish. This is the kind of vegetable subzi u would definitely reach out for second and sometimes third serving:)
