Bhindi Dopiaza-Okra Dopiaza Recipe

The word dopiaza literally means 'onions twice' This north indian recipe calls for onions to be used in large quantities and in two separate batches at different stages of the preparation. It is easy to cook but tastes like you spent hours, lovingly preparing it. Okra is well-loved in india and there are numerous dishes made with it, especially in north india. It has a tendency to turn slimy when cut too much but if you thoroughly pat dry after washing the okra and then cut off the stalk and 'tail' it does not turn as slimy. Bhindi dopiaza tastes delicious with hot chapatis and a pickle.
