2). Once the onions turns light brown add the chopped okra and turmeric powder. Fry well on a medium heat till okra turns slightly brown. Then add chopped tomatoes and saute till tomatoes become mushy.

3). When it's done, turn off the flame and allow it to cool. Transfer the sauteed items to the mixer and grind it to a coarse paste.

Vendakkai Chutney is ready ! I served it with Aval (Sago) Dosa. 

Notes :-
-----------
#Do not add water while grinding the mixture.
# Make sure to wipe the okra, any water will make it more slimy.
# Don't close the lid while cooking the okra, then the chutney will become like a paste.
