## Notes

* to make it more beautiful, you can also slice them diagonally into thin slices.

* never touch water while chopping bhindi. else it will turn sticky

* bhindi raita has to be served immediately else the bhendi will loose its crispiness and become soggy.

* to make it more chatpata; you can add cumin powder, pepper powder, chaat masala, amchur, red chilli powder etc as per your taste.
