It's August already?
My proof: a bountiful monsoon = Rohan & Kishan mama's bhendi crop is reporting for duty!
We suspect - the patch is too large and dense at the moment - the crop includes all three varieties we grow. Success!
To celebrate, I'll be serving you our local ganvti + heirloom Navdhari + Maharashtra Krishi Kendra bhendis in:
1. Dry bhajis. Think, simple Agri sautés made up with freshly grated coconut and the lightest of tadkas. To complex sukkas, slit and stuffed with slow cooked masalas.
2. Dunked in curries. Hello, Marathi fish kalvans (post Nariyal Purnima, 10th August) and Kutchi dahi kadis.
As always, the harvest, namely one of three varieties we grow, will decides your menu. Come hungry, okra?
