Lady's finger is the queen of all the vegetables. I was searching for recipe online and I found the usual recipes. Currently I am experimenting with mint leaves or pudina. I have seen people adding kasuri methi in stir fry's. So I thought why not make a stir fry with mint leaves. I loved the minty taste of lady's finger. Hope you like it too.
