Tips for making the Bhindi Do Pyaza:
Always wash the ladyfingers, wipe them dry and then chop them. If you just wash them and then chop them, then while cooking the ladyfingers become too mushy .
Avoid adding water when making a recipe exclusively with lady fingers as they become too sticky and mushy. If your recipe uses water, then its better to first lightly shallow fry the okras and then use these in the recipe.
