The first time I had peechinga chutney was at a get together.I was clueless about the main ingredient in it and my friends kept saying ,”Meena! you can never guess what veg is used.”I was not ready when they said its Chinese okra/Peechinga.
This is an Andhra style preparation but anybody who wants to be pleasantly surprised can try it .
I did not know peechinga had so much flavor….
Ok now you guess what happened towards the end of the gathering.I was handed over the all the remaining beerakai chutney there, as if for me to say I cannot have anymore
Just kidding …we used to have the most enjoyable time at their place..
Please pick a tender peechinga/Chinese okra or you would end up with grassy chutney.Once mature the veg gets so fibrous that it can be turned into a loofah...
