A simple yet famous Sindhi curry called Basara Mei Bhindi Patata which means Okra and Potato Curry. I have never tried this combo together but now it becomes my favorite.
The original recipe required frying of potatoes and okra , which I have skipped. Everyone at home liked it and enjoyed with hot chapatis. So let’s start the recipe. Yum

I tried a potato and okra curry before from Vaishali's blog but the okra had been stuffed with a masala paste and it was so delicious – I am sure this one is just as yummy!
A yummy curry .Great with rotis and rice…
Interesting combo! Good with rotis!
The texture of the okra is not so gooey or slimy, even without frying.. Lovely combo
