Steps

1To begin making the Paneer Stuffed Bhindi In Ajwain Tomato Gravy Recipe first wash okra, pat them with a dry cloth and cut off the stems. Make a vertical cut in okra, making sure they don’t become two separate halves.
2To prepare the paneer stuffing, combine paneer, salt, red chilli powder, chaat masala powder, coriander powder in a mixing bowl. Mix it well.
3Fill 1/2 teaspoon of mixture in each okra through the slits. Once all the okras are stuffed with the mixture, keep them aside.
4Heat oil in a wok. Once the oil is hot, add the bhindi and cook covered till the bhindis are nearly cooked. Stir occasionally. Once cooked remove and keep aside in a bowl.
5Next in the same wok add some more oil, once oil is hot add the ajwain seeds. once they release the aroma add the chopped onions and slit green chilli. Saute for a minute and add the ginger and garlic.
6Saute till the raw smell of the ginger goes and garlic turns golden brown in colour.
7Next add all the dry spices including red chili powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder and garam masala powder and quickly add the tomato pure.
