Critical Success Points

  • Dry the bhindi thoroughly before slicing to prevent slime.
  • Sauté onions until golden for deep flavor.
  • Do not over‑cook bhindi; it should stay slightly crisp.
  • Fry paneer just until golden to keep it soft inside.
  • Cover the pan to melt mozzarella evenly.

Safety Warnings

  • Hot ghee can splatter – keep a safe distance and use a splatter guard if needed.
  • Handle the knife carefully while slicing bhindi and chopping aromatics.
  • Do not leave the pan unattended on high heat.
