Achari Dahi Bhindi Recipe (Punjabi Sabji)

Achari Dahi Bhindi

Achari Dahi Bhindi

Achari Dahi Bhindi is a very famous Punjabi dish made with Indian spices. Achari Dahi Bhindi is simple and easy to make. Achari Dahi Bhindi is delicious. ‘Achari’ means pickling which is made using a mix of spices. So, we are using pickle masala in this recipe but very less which making this dish flavorful and unique.

There are of course regional variations of Achari dishes. And most popular vegetables are cauliflower, potatoes, okras, etc… yogurt and tomatoes are being added to Achari Sabji which give a double-tangy flavor to curry. It is also perked up with a wide assortment of seeds and spice powders, which give it a super peppy flavor and aroma too. It’s also very clever way to preserve cooked vegetables for longer periods in the so many northern states where temperature is too high in summer.

I use mustard oil when making this dish which gives it a gorgeous pungent flavor and hint of deep color, so I’d urge you to get some for this recipe; although you can swap it for regular cooking oil if you prefer a milder flavor. you can serve this dish with roti, paratha or dal-rice of your choice.

Ingredients:

• 400 grms Bhindi/Okra
• 4 tbsp Mustard Oil

• ½ cup Finely Chopped Onion

Achari Dahi Bhindi

Tips:

• You can add 1-2 tsp pickle masala for more pickly taste of the curry.
