History

Bhindi Do Pyaza is inspired by Mughlai cuisine, which introduced the technique of "Do Pyaza" cooking, where onions are used in two stages for enhanced flavor.

The dish evolved over time in Indian households, particularly in North India, where okra is a widely loved vegetable. The combination of spices, caramelized onions, and fresh bhindi makes this dish a staple in Indian kitchens.

Today, Bhindi Do Pyaza is a popular choice in restaurants and homes, enjoyed for its balanced flavors and nutritional benefits.
