Bhendichi Bhaji (Maharashtrian Style Bhindi/ Okra)

Everyone in my home loves bhindi aka okra aka ladies fingers vegetable so much that I make this subji every week. It's easy, quick, delicious and wholesome too . Bhindi is a nutritious , low calorie vegetable which has high fibre content. It helps in digestion and clears the stomach from constipation, bowel problems and inflammation. It's a good memory booster, helps in retaining healthy eyesight and skin. It's also helps in weight loss. #ga24 #bhindi #okra #ladiesfinger #highfibre #highcalcium #guthealth #vegan #vegetarian #vegetables #weightlossfood
