Bengali Bhindi Doi Posto Recipe

‘Posto’ is the poppy seeds gravy that is popular in the Bengali Cuisine. Bengali Bhindi Doi Posto is a recipe made using poppy seeds and curd. A quick and easy recipe that is also flavourful.

Traditionally, ladies finger is deep fried to maintain its crispy texture. But in this recipe, I have shallow fried the Bhindi to make it more healthy. The entire dish comes together within 20 minutes. Use tender /small ladies finger to get the best tasting Bhindi Posto.

Note:The gravy thickens after it cools down, so adjust water accordingly.

Serve Bengali Bhindi Doi Posto phulkas or Steamed Rice and Bengali Style Cholar Dal for a satisfying weekday lunch.
