Lady's Finger is treated as a regular vegetable in mainly the eastern part of India and it is available only in summer. This deep green, very attractive looking vegetable is rich in various nutritional values such as it is very low in sodium, cholesterol and saturated fat, high in dietary fibre, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, thiamin, Vitamin B6, Folate, Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Manganese, Protein, Riboflavin, Niacin, Iron, Zinc and Copper.
Generally it is cooked with potato as a curry or cut into small pieces and fried in oil is also very delicious. I am giving here a very easy but lip-smacking recipe.
Cut it in small pieces (required quantity) and just boil it by adding a little water and a pinch of salt and remove it from heat before it is too soft. Add lemon juice and black pepper powder of your choice and eat hot. It's delicious!!
