Ladies finger crispies!!

Ingredients:
Ladies finger : 1 kg.
Onion : 2 large. (finley sliced)
Besan : 2 -4 tbsp
Coriander pdr : 2 tbsp
Turmeric pdr : 1 tsp
Chilli prd : 1 tbsp
Garam Masala : 3 tbsp
Dry jeera prd : 2 tbsp
Salt : to taste.
Oil : a generous glug.

Method:
Slice the ladies fingers very thinly in a diagonal direction and keep aside. In a large vessel, apread the sliced ladies fingers and add all the masala powders and the salt. then add the besan, and mix it with your hands. Lightly toss it so that all the masala and the besan coats the bhindi. keep aside for 15 mins.
In a pan add the oil, add finley sliced onions and fry. add salt, and little chilli prd. when the onions are sufficiently browned, add the ladies fingers. fry and cook over low flame, until done.
Note: if your not concerned about fried items, then you can do deep fry also. in that case leave out the onions.
Serve with a squeeze of lime or lemon juice and garnish with corriander leaves. great combo for rotis or even rice and dal.
