Bhindi &
Bhindi seeds from India
(also
called Abelmoschus
esculentus) QUALITY VEGETABLES SEEDS
Bhindi (Okra)
is a traditional food
plant in Africa; this
vegetable has potential
to improve nutrition,
boost food security,
foster rural development
and support sustainable
landcare.
The products of the
plant are mucilaginous,
resulting in the
characteristic "goo" or
slime when the seed pods
are cooked; the mucilage
contains a usable form
of soluble fiber. While
many people enjoy okra
cooked this way, others
prefer to minimise
sliminess; keeping the
pods intact and cooking
quickly help to achieve
this.
To avoid sliminess, okra
pods are often briefly
stir-fried, or cooked
with acidic ingredients
such as citrus,
tomatoes, or vinegar.
Alternatively the pods
can be sliced thinly and
cooked for a long time,
so that the mucilage
dissolves, as in gumbo.
The cooked leaves can
also be used as a
powerful soup
thickener.[citation
needed] The immature
pods may also be
pickled.
In Syria, Egypt,
Greece, Iran, Iraq,
Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey,
and Yemen, and other
parts of the eastern
Mediterranean, including
Cyprus, okra is widely
used in a thick stew
made with vegetables and
meat.
It is one of the most
popular vegetables among
Middle Easterners and
North Indians and
Pakistanis alike.In most of the
Middle East, okra is
known as bamia or bamya.
Middle Eastern cuisine
usually uses
young okra pods and they
are usually cooked
whole. In India, the
harvesting is done at a
later stage, when the
pods and seeds are
larger.

bhindi piece in the
oil. Fry over high
heat for about 2
minutes. Then lower

corrugated boxes of
5kgs to 10 Kgs.each
as per requirement.
Propagation and
Planting :
Propagation is
through seeds. Soak
seeds overnight in
warm water before
sowing to improve
germination. Seeds
can be sown 1 inch
deep in pots or seed
trays or directly on
the ground
12 to 18 inches
apart or three to
four seeds per foot,
in single rows.
Seedlings are ready
for transplanting
when they reach a
height of 10-15cm.
Rows should be kept
3 to 5 feet apart.
Plants branch out
only when they reach
a height of 30-40cm.
Medicinal properties
Unspecified parts of the plant
reportedly possess diuretic
properties.
It is
called bhindi in Hindi;
it is popular in North
India and Pakistan, where it is
chopped up into one-inch pieces
and stir fried, typically with
red onions and spices,
or added to gravy-based
preparations like Bhindi Ghosht
or sambar (South India).
Okra
oil is a pressed seed oil,
extracted from the seeds of the
okra. The
greenish-yellow edible oil has a
pleasant taste and odor, and is
high in unsaturated fats such as
oleic acid and linoleic acid.
The oil content of the seed is
quite high at about 40%. Oil
yields from okra crops are
also high. At 794 kg/ha, the
yield was exceeded only by that
of sunflower oil in one trial
