Bhindi gosht<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bhindi Gosht is a traditional dish where the fried okras get tossed into spiced and savory mutton. You start by frying until it&#8217;s just crisp enough to hold up in the curry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the same pot, saut\u00e9 onions, garlic, and ginger until golden, add the mutton and let it brown. Then, pour in tomatoes and spices like cumin, coriander, and red chili powder. Once the mutton is tender, reintroduce the okra and let everything simmer together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What you get is a rich, deeply flavored curry, giving a perfect mix of meat and <a href=\"https:\/\/shanafoods.ca\/shop\/frozen-vegetables\">vegetables<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">2. Okra\/bhindi masala<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Okra masala is quick, simple, and delicious!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Begin by frying some cumin seeds until they sputter. Add onions and cook them until they\u2019re just turning color, then mix in ginger and garlic for that aromatic kick. Slide in the okra and spices like chili powder, and turmeric and let the heat coax out their flavors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A splash of water helps the <a href=\"https:\/\/shanafoods.ca\/product\/whole-baby-okra-value-pack-201272\">okra<\/a> cook to a tender yet firm perfection. Stir in diced tomatoes and simmer until everything melds into a thick, aromatic sauce. Serve with a final seasoning of salt and a handful of fresh coriander leaves.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">3. Okras with cashew nuts<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Okras with Cashew Nuts brings a unique richness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Start by roasting cashews until they&#8217;re golden and set them aside. In a hot pan, stir-fry the okra with chopped garlic and a drizzle of almond oil, seasoning it with salt and pepper.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As the it becomes tender, toss in the roasted cashews and lemon zest for a refreshing twist. It combines the crunch of nuts with the smoothness of okra.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">4. Bamya (Okra stew)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This Middle Eastern-inspired stew pairs okra with a tomato and garlic broth, creating a dish that\u2019s nutritious and full of flavors. It uses simple ingredients like onions, garlic, tomatoes, and a mix of aromatic spices such as cinnamon and turmeric.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Begin by saut\u00e9ing onions and garlic, then add the spices and tomatoes to create a rich base. Add the <a href=\"https:\/\/shanafoods.ca\/product\/okra-sliced-rings-201949\">okra<\/a> and let it simmer until it\u2019s perfectly cooked through, absorbing the flavors of the broth.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Serve this warm, hearty stew with rice or bread for a fulfilling Eid meal.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">5. Sizzling okra skewers<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For a fun twist, try Okra Skewers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Thread okras onto skewers and brush them with a marinade of chili flakes, sesame oil, and soy sauce. Grill them until they\u2019re charred and smoky.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">These skewers look so visually appealing on the table and are packed with flavor, making them a great starter or <a href=\"https:\/\/shanafoods.ca\/blog\/spice-up-your-eid-with-these-fiery-green-chili-recipes\/\">side dish for your Eid celebration<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">So, this Eid ul Adha, let <a href=\"https:\/\/shanafoods.ca\/\">Shana Foods<\/a> help you create an unforgettable feast with these diverse and delicious recipes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Enjoy the festivities, the company of loved ones, and the joy of cooking with Shana, and make your Eid meals memorable with some magic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Happy Eid!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eid ul Adha is fast approaching, bringing with it all its bliss, joy, and delicious food, of course!This year, why don\u2019t we spice up our festive feasts with something unexpected?Well, okra might not be the first thing you think of when you&#8217;re planning your Eid menu, but it&#8217;s about time it gets a moment in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":222,"featured_media":768,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[73,77,74,72,75,76,79,78],"class_list":{"0":"post-761","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-featured","8":"tag-bhindi","9":"tag-buy-okra","10":"tag-lady-finger","11":"tag-okra","12":"tag-okra-2024","13":"tag-okra-in-canada","14":"tag-okra-recipes-in-canada","15":"tag-online-okra"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>5 must-try okra recipes for your Eid feast! - Shana-Foods<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Spice up your Eid feast with these 5 must-try okra recipes!
