Schezwan Ladies Finger

Ingredients:

Ladies Finger - 1/2 kg

Spring Onions - 3

Sugar - 1 tbsp

White Til (optional) - For garnishing

Schezwan Sauce (as prepared in previous recipe)

Oil - As needed to deep fry 



Method:

1.  Wash and cut ladies finger to 1 inch pieces.

2.  Chop finely the spring onions.

3.  Heat a kadai and deep fry the ladies finger pieces in hot oil until it is crisp but does not change its green color.  Keep aside.

4.  In another pan, heat a tablespoon of oil, add spring onions and saute for a minute.

5.  Add 3 to 4 tablespoons of the homemade schezwan sauce and fry a bit.

6.  Add the deep fried ladies finger pieces and toss well until the sauce coats the vegetable pieces.

7.  Serve hot garnished with white til.

This is a dry curry and is a lip smacking variety of ladies finger which is a vegetable rich in nutrients.  I am sure this is a favorite for kids and for the grown ups too.  This suits best for fried rice and parathas.  This can be had as a snack too.


Note:

Add a teaspoon of cornflour diluted in water just before tossing the ladies finger pieces to get a good shine and thickness for the gravy/sauce.
