The Buzz Around ‘Kaanda Bhindi’
After the internet went abuzz with his delightful recipe for ‘Baingan Ka Bharta,’ Jackie Shroff has once again taken the culinary world by storm with his newest creation – ‘Kaanda Bhindi.’ This simple yet flavorful dish has quickly caught the attention of food enthusiasts, igniting a trend of experimentation among Desis online.
Step-by-Step: Crafting Kaanda Bhindi
During a radio show, the 66-year-old actor shared a detailed step-by-step process for preparing ‘Kaanda Bhindi.’ Food vloggers Shivangi and Arjun, known for their Instagram page @thefoodwassogood, enthusiastically embraced the recipe and documented their experience for their online community.
“Chaukandi,” as Jackie affectionately terms them, finely cubed onions are the foundation of this dish. Soaking these diced onions in water is the first tip he shares to prevent any unwanted bacterial intrusion. Similarly, lady’s fingers are cut into uniform cubes.
A heated pan receives a drizzle of oil, followed by the addition of the chopped onions and lady’s fingers. Due to the dry nature of both vegetables, Jackie emphasizes the importance of not stirring them. The next step involves covering the pan and allowing the mixture to cook. Chopped garlic cloves are introduced, followed by a dash of salt to taste. Within minutes of cooking, this simple yet delectable Bhindi dish is ready to be enjoyed.
