做法
- 秋葵去头去尾。切成2厘米段。关键:秋葵和你的刀必须完全干燥。任何水分都会触发黏液毁掉这道菜。
- 在宽锅中以中高火加热一半油。秋葵分两批每批炒8分钟——前3分钟不动,然后偶尔翻拌。秋葵应缩小、边缘变棕、油亮。捞出。
- 加剩余油。爆孜然籽,然后加洋葱。煮7分钟至边缘金棕——旁遮普厨师做这种干菜时追求比咖喱更深的颜色。
- 加姜、蒜和辣椒;炒60秒。加番茄、姜黄、克什米尔辣椒和芫荽粉。煮5分钟,搅拌,直到番茄完全散开、油浮出。
- 把炸过的秋葵倒回锅中。加盐轻轻翻拌——猛烈搅拌会弄碎秋葵。盖盖小火煮4分钟使风味融合。
- 开盖,撒芒果粉和印度什香粉。关火搅一下。静置两分钟再上桌。最终菜应是干的,秋葵边缘略脆,番茄洋葱酱料挂在每块上。配热印度饼上桌。

文化背景
秋葵以黏滑闻名——核心技术问题是厨师能否抑制黏液。方法:切前彻底擦干、热油不动地炒、加芒果粉或柠檬(酸阻止黏液)、绝不加水。旁遮普版本干、洋葱番茄重;孟加拉秋葵用panch phoron且更湿;安得拉bhindi pulusu加罗望子,变成炖菜。每个地区都说自己的版本是唯一正确的。
