    Can I make it in regular oven (OTG)?

    Yes, you can. Whether you are making a big batch or a small one, you can follow the same recipe and bake it in an oven instead of using an air fryer.

    Make sure to keep an eye while baking to prevent the okra from getting burnt as each oven’s works differently with same temperature.

    Points to note before Air Frying Okra:

    Make sure that the okra or bhindi are completely dry before adding the flour and spice powders.

    If doing a big batch make sure to take turns baking in small batches.

    Spread the okra evenly into the air fryer basket in a single layer. Do not dump okra piling it high.

    After mixing up the okra with spices, air fry it immediately and do not let it rest for longer time.

    Make sure to pick tender okra for making Kurkuri bhindi. Adjust the red chilli powder according to your spice level.
