Quick Lady Finger Gojju

Quick Lady finger gojju is a finger licking dish. I have tried this gojju with adding puliyogre gojju instead of using tamarind pulp.


The puliyogre gojju adds to Lady finger gojju and goes well with chapatis, rotis, poori, idli and dosa.

Lady fingers should be tender and it cooks faster when you fry with little oil, or it gets hard and it will not taste good when you use it for gojju.
